Celina F. Lung, 48, finished a shift at an ambulance company in Everett, Washington, on a late evening in October 1964 and never returned home. Her car was found parked across the street from work the next morning, as it usually was; inside were her coat, handbag with wallet and personal items, shoes, and car keys. Police were notified after a coworker raised the alarm.

Investigators focused on Celina’s estranged husband, Joel Lung. A 30 caliber bullet hole was found in the pocket of Celina’s coat, the lining stained with human blood. After being advised of his right to counsel, Joel confessed that he had accidentally shot Celina, panicked, put her body in his panel delivery truck, and drove to a log dump on the Snohomish River where he said he disposed of her remains. An officer testified to seeing a truck like Joel’s near that area in the early morning after her disappearance. Joel was convicted of second-degree murder in May 1965, but an extensive search of the river and surrounding areas did not recover Celina’s body.

Does anyone have information about Celina’s last shift, the police search at the Snohomish River, or memories of this case in Everett?
