Lucille Mae Grenz, 40, was last seen at her home on Northwest 6th Street in Toledo, Oregon, on March 30, 1962. Described as having red hair and blue eyes, she had recently left a job as a store clerk and was planning to move to Seattle to live with a boyfriend. She lived with her teenage daughter and had a history of leaving home without notice, which initially reduced concern when she was first reported missing a few days later.

On May 21, the daughter and a foster mother returned to the house to retrieve clothing and found the bedroom in disarray. The mattress, bedclothes, and drapes were gone, and human blood was spattered on the walls, floor, and ceiling. Lucille’s personal effects, including her clothing, remained behind. Investigators questioned the boyfriend in Seattle; he denied knowledge of her whereabouts, and bloodstains were found in his car trunk but he was not charged. The investigation remains open.

Did anyone in Toledo or Seattle at the time have information about Lucille’s plans, movements, or contacts in late March and April 1962?
