Deborah Lusk, 66, vanished from her Memphis home in the autumn of 2015. She was last known to be at her residence in the 7000 block of Pinnacle Oaks Drive on September 19, 2015; she spoke twice that day with her husband, who was away in Parsons, Tennessee on his boat. When he returned later that night he found the house empty, the home phone unplugged and Deborah’s cell phone left charging. Doors were locked and nothing inside appeared disturbed.

Three days later, on September 22, Deborah’s car — a red 1997 Hyundai Accent, Tennessee plate 401-LSR — was found backed into a space in a Walgreens parking lot less than a mile from her home, reportedly spotted by a cousin. Despite that discovery, there has been no sign of Deborah and no activity on her financial accounts. The Shelby County Sheriff’s Office classifies her as an endangered missing person. She is Black, with black hair and brown eyes, and has tattoos including a butterfly on the left side of her chest, a red rose on the outside of her right ankle, and a Chinese symbol on her inner right wrist.

Her family describe her as intelligent, outgoing and a perfectionist who made ceramic dolls. The investigation remains unresolved and the circumstances of her disappearance are unexplained. If anyone has information about Deborah’s whereabouts or remembers seeing her car around Pinnacle Oaks Drive or the Walgreens parking lot in late September 2015, please come forward.
