Heidi Ann Zampell was 22 when she vanished from Naples, Florida, on June 18, 1987. She finished a shift at Bathtique in Coastland Mall and asked a friend to drop her at a rural residence in Golden Gate Estates. The house belonged to a minister named Arthur Sims; Zampell reportedly did not explain why she wanted to go there. Her friend left her at the driveway and that was the last confirmed sighting.

Sims later told authorities he did not know Zampell, that she was not a member of his church, and that she did not visit his home that day. Investigators found Zampell’s personal effects, including her last paycheck, at home; she carried only a makeup bag, had no valid driver’s license, and no passport. Family members said she had no history of running away. Authorities classified the disappearance as involuntary and have said foul play may be involved; no public suspects or significant leads have emerged.

Does anyone who lived in Golden Gate Estates in June 1987 recall seeing Heidi or anything unusual near Arthur Sims’s property?
