Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP8545) and 7 other sources
Carolyn Jeanne Holloway, 34, was last seen on September 30, 1977, in Richardson, Texas. Very few details are known about the circumstances of her disappearance, but foul play is strongly suspected. Carolyn, described as a white female with blonde hair and gray eyes, stood between 5'6" and 5'9" tall and weighed approximately 120 to 130 pounds at the time she vanished.

Authorities believe she may have been taken against her will, as no trace of her has been found since her disappearance. Her case remains unsolved, with investigators still hoping for any new information that could lead to answers after all these years. The Richardson Police Department continues to handle her case, urging anyone with knowledge of her whereabouts to come forward.
