Mary Catherine Green, 62, vanished from her own front yard in Richwood, West Virginia, on the afternoon of Thursday, June 18, 2026. Her husband last saw her about 3:30 p.m. while he was inside preparing supper; when he stepped out and then returned to call her in, she was gone. Mary lives with dementia and cannot drive.

She was last seen wearing a cream-colored sweater, grey sweatpants, and plastic shoes of an unknown color, and wearing a gold necklace and rings on all fingers. She is 5 feet 3 inches tall, about 130 pounds, with gray or partially gray hair and green eyes. A Silver Alert was issued and the West Virginia State Police, Richwood Volunteer Fire Department, and many volunteers began an extensive search.

Search efforts expanded from vehicles and ATVs to K-9 teams, helicopter and drone thermal searches, and a planned grid search on foot within a two-mile radius of her Greenbrier Road home. Investigators entered her into the National Crime Information Center. No trace of Mary had been found as the search continued.

If anyone has information about Mary’s movements that afternoon or saw her near Greenbrier Road, please come forward.
