Dawn Christine Eby, 43, was last seen in Panama on June 18, 2014, after leaving the Mount Alverna Retreat Center. She was a resident of Eagan, Minnesota, and her disappearance was not reported to the Eagan Police Department until October 9, 2014. At the time she went missing she was described as a Caucasian female between 4 feet 11 inches and 5 feet 1 inch tall, weighing 95 to 105 pounds, with brown hair and hazel eyes. Her case is listed in NamUs as MP26760.

Reports say she left the retreat center on foot intending to board a boat bound for Colombia, but the reasons for her stay at the center and for planning that journey have not been publicized. The cross-border elements mean the investigation involves multiple countries; the Eagan Police Department holds the primary case, and no significant public breakthroughs have been announced. Few details are available about her activities or state of mind before she disappeared.

If anyone was at Mount Alverna Retreat Center on or after June 18, 2014, or remembers seeing a woman matching Dawn’s description trying to catch a boat to Colombia, can you share what you know?
