Joyce Lee Kennedy, 44, vanished from Seattle-Tacoma International Airport on March 20, 1978 after finishing a shift as a Pan American ticket agent. She walked away from her counter and was never seen again. Joyce was described as 5 feet 3 inches, about 135 pounds, with reddish-brown hair, blue eyes, and wearing glasses. She left in a tan blouse and red slacks and wore a gold ring inscribed love with a small diamond.

Two days later her car was found unlocked in the airport visitor parking lot instead of the employee area; her purse and keys were on the front seat and there were no obvious signs of a struggle. Joyce had arranged to meet her ex-husband John Thomas Jack O’Keefe II that day about a debt. The couple had divorced in 1976 and the family reported a history of physical abuse. O’Keefe was never charged and is now deceased. Foul play is suspected but the case remains unsolved.

If anyone knew Joyce, saw her at the airport that day, or has information about her meeting with O’Keefe, please share what is known.
