Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP70760)
On a day in early summer, June 1, 2002, a 40-year-old woman named Cynthia L. Dollinger was last in contact with anyone who would later report her missing from Rochester, New York. At the time, Cynthia, who also went by the names Cynthia Coyle or Cindy, was a woman with brown hair and hazel eyes. She stood at five feet four inches tall and weighed approximately 180 pounds. The circumstances surrounding the date she was last seen are somewhat unclear, adding a layer of complexity to her case from the very beginning. The official date of last contact is recorded as June 1, 2002, but the report of her disappearance was not made until a decade later. This significant delay has created a challenging environment for those seeking to find answers.

The official investigation into Cynthia's disappearance is being handled by the Town of Greece Police Department in Monroe County. The case file, EGRE13-037473, was created long after she was last seen, a fact that has undoubtedly impacted the ability to gather timely information and evidence. The notation in her file that the reporting party had not been in contact with her for the ten years prior to the report suggests a life that may have been somewhat disconnected from those who would eventually raise the alarm. This lack of recent information has left a void in the timeline of her life leading up to her disappearance, making it difficult to piece together her last known movements or state of mind.

The search for Cynthia has been a quiet one, with very little media attention over the years. Her case is documented in national databases for missing persons, a silent testament to a life interrupted. For those who knew Cynthia, and for a community that remains hopeful for answers, her absence is a profound and unresolved loss. The overview of this case is one of quiet uncertainty. A woman vanished, and for ten years, her absence was not officially noted. The limited information available paints a fragmented picture of a person whose story is waiting to be completed, leaving more questions than answers and a family and community still waiting for a resolution.
