Dorothy Louise Wright-Weiler was 22 and newly divorced when she disappeared from Lewiston, Idaho, on Monday, June 16, 1947. She had been living with her sons and her grandmother while her former husband lived in New York. That morning she took a walk with her mother; near the Manhattan restaurant in Lewiston she broke away, ran toward the Memorial Bridge over the Snake River and said she intended to jump.

She was last seen wearing Levis, a red checkered jacket, a white shirt, bobby socks and white moccasins. Immediate searches failed to find her and no remains were ever recovered. The case was classified as a suspected suicide and remains open with the Lewiston Police Department, leaving the family without definitive closure.

Did anyone in Lewiston at the time remember Dorothy or notice anything unusual along the Memorial Bridge on June 16, 1947?
