Sheila Kathleen McBroom, 40, left her Anchorage home on the morning of October 27, 2008, saying she was headed to her job with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers at Elmendorf Air Force Base. Family members later noted she was wearing walking shoes rather than work shoes, suggesting a different plan that morning.

At about 8:30 a.m. an Alaska State Trooper stopped Sheila’s green 1996 GMC pickup at mile 106 on the Seward Highway, roughly six miles south of Girdwood — the opposite direction of Elmendorf. The trooper, alerted to erratic driving, concluded she was tired after a sobriety test and advised a nap. That encounter was the last confirmed sighting. Her husband reported her missing on October 28; the truck was found abandoned at the same spot on October 31 with all personal items, including her cell phone, inside and no immediate signs of foul play. An extensive search turned up no trace.

Sheila was active in her Mormon ward and kept a personal blog. Family members say she would not have voluntarily left them. Does anyone recall seeing Sheila or her truck on the Seward Highway that morning, or have information about mile 106 around October 27–31, 2008?
