Valerie Ingorvaia, a 38-year-old mother of five from San Antonio, was last seen on November 28, 2019 in Fort Worth after spending Thanksgiving with family. She planned to return home but disappeared in the early hours of November 29. Her phone last pinged near Highway 173 between Hondo and Castroville about 10:22 AM before her GPS was turned off, an action described as uncharacteristic for her.

At the time she vanished, Valerie was with a man named Chance Stelzig, who later became a person of interest. Stelzig was arrested in March 2020 on an unrelated murder that occurred shortly before Valerie’s disappearance, but no concrete link between that crime and her case has been established. Fort Worth and San Antonio police continue to investigate, and foul play has not been ruled out.

Valerie’s family has organized searches, distributed flyers, maintained a social media presence and sought private investigators as they push for answers and closure. If anyone knew Valerie’s movements around Thanksgiving 2019 or saw her after November 28, please share what you remember.
