Nancy Lyons, 46, vanished after a routine shopping trip to a Rushville Walmart on the evening of June 17, 2002. Her red 1993 Nissan was found running at the rural intersection of County Roads 700 West and 500 North in Rush County with the trunk open and a flat rear tire; her purse and other personal items remained inside the car, but Nancy was missing. Searches of nearby farms and fields, including use of cadaver dogs, turned up nothing for months.

On October 2, 2002 a farmer in Bartholomew County discovered human skeletal remains in a soybean field about 30 miles from where the car was found. Dental records confirmed the remains were Nancy’s. An autopsy determined the cause of death to be a fatal blow to the head and the death was ruled a homicide. No suspects have been publicly identified and no arrests have been announced, and the investigation is cold.

Does anyone who lived in Rush County or Bartholomew County in 2002 remember seeing Nancy or her red Nissan in June 2002, or have information that might help her family?
