Candace Jay Beckman-Wright was 38 when she was last seen on the far west side of Green Bay, Wisconsin, on December 29, 1985. She was described as petite, 5 feet 3 inches and about 100 pounds, with brown hair, green eyes and a brown rectangular birthmark just above her left elbow. Family reports say she lived with behavioral and psychological disorders and required medication.

Records show she had divorced James Wright in 1976 and again used her maiden name, Beckman. Public details about the circumstances of December 29, 1985, are sparse, and some official records list an August 8, 1988 disappearance date, though 1985 is more commonly cited. Unconfirmed reports placed her in Florida after she vanished, but none were substantiated.

There has been no contact with family or friends since she was last seen and the Green Bay Police Department continues to list her as missing. Anyone who knew Candace, saw her around late 1985, or has information about possible sightings is asked to come forward.
