Ivy Mantell, 58, vanished from Yonkers, New York, after being last seen on June 9, 2011, in the Getty Square area. A devoted mother who had been living transiently to stay near her autistic son, she was experiencing homelessness and used local shelters. She was often seen with a small rolling suitcase or a shopping cart, walked with a cane for health reasons, and had brown hair, brown eyes and scars on her nose and over one eyebrow. Reported height and weight were about five feet three to four inches and 105 to 125 pounds.

Family reported Ivy struggled with depression, anxiety and alcoholism, and her son had been placed in an institutional home. Her social service cards and a government-issued cellphone showed no activity after her disappearance; searches of abandoned buildings, wooded areas and the river produced no trace. Her boyfriend at the time was reportedly uncooperative, and authorities and family later considered foul play a strong possibility. The family has offered a reward for information leading to the location of her body.

Did anyone in Yonkers around June 2011 see Ivy with her rolling suitcase or shopping cart, or have information about where she might have gone?
