Patricia Cabrera was 34 when she disappeared from the Long Island area in late December 2014. She was last seen December 26, 2014, leaving her job at Mama’s Pizza and Italian Restaurant in Centereach at about 10 p.m. Family last expected her to pick up her 12-year-old daughter at the airport on January 2, 2015; she never arrived.

Described as 5 feet 6 inches and about 125 pounds with brown hair and brown eyes, she was believed to be driving a black 2011 Honda Fit, New York plate CZP 4080. Officers from the Suffolk County Police Department’s Third Precinct searched her Bay Shore home and found no signs of foul play; her credit cards, pocketbook and other personal items were untouched. Calls to her phone went directly to voicemail.

Friends and family say she was a hardworking, devoted mother and that vanishing was out of character. The vehicle and Patricia have not been located. If anyone knew Patricia, saw the Honda Fit, or has information about her movements after December 26, 2014, please come forward.
