Valerie Wojcik, also known as Waleria, was 70 when she disappeared from her Phoenix, Arizona, home on June 29, 1993. She was last seen near 29th Street and Broadway Road. A native of Poland, she spoke very limited English, had gray hair and blue eyes, stood between 5 feet 1 inch and 5 feet 3 inches, and weighed about 100 to 110 pounds.

Valerie had medical issues that could cause confusion and disorientation. She’d had a prior stroke that left her with slurred speech and was in the early stages of dementia. Those factors, and a previous episode in which she was found in San Antonio after going missing, led relatives and investigators to consider that she may have wandered from her neighborhood while disoriented.

The case remains open. Does anyone have memories of seeing Valerie in that area in late June 1993 or information that could help locate her?
