Myra Lanthier, 72, was reported missing from Palmer, Alaska after last being heard from on the morning of July 17, 2025. A longtime local who worked as a waitress at the Noisy Goose and later as a dispatcher for the Palmer Police Department, she was last seen between Hughes Circle and the intersections of Clark and Wolverine Roads wearing baggy blue jeans and a blue and gray jacket.

The Alaska State Troopers received the missing person report on July 18, 2025, and issued a Silver Alert, designating her a vulnerable person. Myra had left without her cell phone, wallet, or identification, and friends said she had been dealing with some mental health challenges; her brother had been in town and left the day before she vanished. Community search parties, ATVs and drone teams swept ditches, wooded areas and stretches of the Old Glenn Highway but no substantial leads emerged.

Anyone who was in east Palmer on July 17 or who may have seen Myra between Hughes Circle and Clark and Wolverine Roads is asked to come forward with information.
