Grace Reapp, 32, vanished from her Jericho, Vermont home on June 6, 1978, together with her 5-year-old daughter, Gracie. A note left for her husband, Michael Reapp, reportedly said Grace and Gracie were leaving voluntarily and did not plan to return. Michael reported them missing on June 11, 1978, then filed for divorce citing desertion. Two older sons were at school when the disappearance occurred, and relatives described it as highly unusual for Grace to leave without contacting them.

Searches of the Reapp family property and investigations produced no bodies. The disappearances were reclassified as homicides in 1996. A warrant for Michael Reapp’s arrest on murder charges was issued in 2006; he later died by suicide after a police chase in Arizona in 1997. Investigators continue to search the family’s former property for Grace and Gracie’s remains.

If anyone knew Grace or Gracie, or has information about activity at the Reapp property in 1978, please come forward.
