Mary Rose Mikulak was 90 when she moved from New Jersey to Plains Township, Pennsylvania, in the late summer of 2007 to live with her granddaughter Linasheri D’Onofrio and Linasheri’s severely disabled son, Shain. Mary was last seen around September 1, 2007, shortly after settling into the East Mountain Ridge Mobile Home Park, and then vanished without a trace. Her New Jersey relatives grew concerned and hired a private investigator in 2011, but that search produced no answers.

In 2014 authorities learned checks made out to Mary had been deposited into a joint account shared with Linasheri after Linasheri was accused of stealing checks from a neighbor she was house-sitting for; attempts to locate Mary then failed. A February 2018 shed fire behind the mobile home proved to be arson; human remains recovered there were later identified by DNA as Shain, Mary’s great-grandson. Only after that discovery was Mary formally listed as missing. No death record or trace of her whereabouts has been found, and investigators consider her likely deceased though her fate remains unresolved.

Does anyone have information about Mary’s move to Plains Township in 2007 or contacts who saw her after September 1, 2007?
