Kathleen Grace Johnston, known as Grace, was 25 when she vanished from downtown Saskatoon on the afternoon of October 20, 1953. After visiting her mother she boarded a city transit bus at about 2:15 p.m. and was seen getting off downtown en route to her job at the Gem Café. She never arrived at work and was not seen or heard from again.

At the time she was described as a Caucasian woman, medium build, five feet four inches tall, with auburn or brown hair and brown eyes. She wore a green pinstripe suit, a white nylon blouse, a green corduroy coat with a corded stripe, carried a red purse and had red Oxford-style shoes.

The initial investigation produced few leads and the file went cold, though it remains open with the Saskatoon Police Service and her case appears in provincial and national missing-person databases. Little else is publicly known about what happened after she stepped off the bus that afternoon.

Did anyone in Saskatoon in 1953 see Kathleen that afternoon or have information that might still be relevant?
