Marie Alabre, 71, was last seen on the morning of Friday, October 11, 2024, when she left her family’s home in Duluth, Georgia, on foot and did not return. She was last seen near Steve Reynolds Boulevard and Club Drive wearing a dress that was brown on the top and black on the bottom. Family members say she often took short walks but always came back; her failure to return was uncharacteristic and prompted a missing person report to the Gwinnett County Police Department, filed either on October 12 or three days after she was last seen according to differing accounts.

Ms. Alabre is described as five feet tall, about 110 pounds, with graying hair, brown eyes and a noticeable birthmark in the center of her forehead. Relatives told police she had no money with her, no access to a vehicle, and had expressed unhappiness living in Georgia and a wish to return to Haiti, though the family did not believe she had the means to make that trip alone. The Gwinnett County Police Department issued a public appeal for help locating her.

If anyone saw Marie on October 11 near Steve Reynolds Boulevard and Club Drive or has information about her whereabouts, please contact the Gwinnett County Police Department.
