Janet Gould DeFelice, 88, vanished from her son’s home on Santa Rita Ranch Road in Templeton, California. She was last heard on a phone call at 2:30 a.m. on June 1, 2007; when her son woke at 7:00 a.m., she was gone. She had recently moved from Costa Mesa and was said to be unhappy about the change.

At the time she disappeared she had early-stage dementia and arthritis. She was dressed in a red fleece pullover, black sweatpants, and white sneakers, and carried only a small amount of cash and no credit cards. She was reported physically active for her age, walking up to five miles a day. An extensive search of the area turned up no sign of her, and the only later discovery was her purse beneath a bush about a quarter mile from the son’s home in July 2009.

Her case remains unsolved. If anyone was in the Santa Rita Ranch Road area the night of June 1, 2007, or has information about Janet’s movements, please come forward.
