Irene Matheson, 69, of Miami, Florida, was last seen the night of September 30, 1985, outside her Heatherwalk Condominiums residence. She was reliable and scheduled to report to work at Perrine Elementary School the next morning but never arrived. Her apartment was found in perfect order, with a coffee cup and spoon in the sink and her pet puppy left behind—items the family says she would not have left voluntarily.

On December 4, 1985, Irene’s tan 1977 Honda was found abandoned in a parking lot not far from her home; reports say the car had been moved around within the lot over several weeks. There was no sign of Irene when the vehicle was recovered. She was described as 5 feet 1 inch, about 130 pounds, with blonde hair and blue eyes. Her gold wedding band with diamond chips and a gold diamond ring were missing.

The disappearance remains unsolved. If anyone knew Irene, saw her car in late 1985, or has information about her movements that night, please come forward with any details.
