Sheilagh Mary Coleman, 47, disappeared in late summer 2000 from British Columbia under circumstances that remain unresolved. Reports conflict on her last confirmed sighting: her mother last saw her on August 1, 2000, in Gibsons, while a neighbor said they saw her leaving her boyfriend’s home in Duncan on August 21, 2000, riding the bicycle she commonly used. Neither Sheilagh nor the bicycle has been seen since that later date.

Sheilagh was described as a white female, 5 feet 6 inches, about 121 pounds, with short wispy blond hair and blue-green eyes. Distinguishing marks included a scar on her forehead and a tattoo of thistles on her left wrist. The North Cowichan Duncan RCMP is handling the investigation. The contradictory last-seen dates complicate the timeline and leave key questions about her movements between Gibsons and Duncan.

Anyone who knew Sheilagh, remembers seeing her or her bicycle in August 2000, or has information that could help should contact the North Cowichan Duncan RCMP.
