Sara Lynn Proffer was 40 when she vanished from the Tellico Plains area of Monroe County, Tennessee. The last confirmed contact was a phone call with her mother on or about May 3, 2019; after that call her family lost contact and her whereabouts became uncertain. At the time she was thought to be somewhere in the rural, mountainous Tellico Plains region, but her exact location was not known.

Sara was described as a Caucasian woman with brown hair and green eyes, five feet, eight inches tall and about 130 pounds. The Monroe County Sheriff’s Office has an open investigation, but few concrete leads have been reported and the case had grown cold by early 2023.

If anyone in the Tellico Plains area remembers seeing Sara around May 2019 or has information that could help locate her, please share what is known with the Monroe County Sheriff’s Office.
