Julia Vicente, 59, disappeared from Shiprock, New Mexico on June 3, 2018. A member of the Navajo Nation, she was dropped about a mile from her home that afternoon by her husband to visit a friend and was expected to walk back before dark. She often walked for exercise to help her arthritis, but did not return and has not been seen or heard from since.

At the time she went missing Julia was wearing a white shirt with light blue sleeves, blue jeans, a green coat with brown lining with a fox label on the left side, white Skechers sneakers, and may have been wearing bear claw earrings with small turquoise stones. She is described as 5 feet tall, 110 pounds, with shoulder-length brown hair with white strands and brown eyes.

The Navajo Nation Police Department in the Shiprock District and the Bureau of Indian Affairs Missing and Murdered Unit are investigating and the case remains open. Her family says she would not willingly abandon them and continues to hope for answers. If anyone knew Julia, saw her that afternoon, or has information that could help locate her, please come forward.
