Rose Maria Patterson, 43, of Gastonia, North Carolina, was last in contact with family on June 1, 2015. She was known to frequent U.S. 321 South near Clyde Street and Johns Lane and had connections in Dallas and Matthews. Recently homeless after the death of her boyfriend, she struggled with a long-running addiction but spoke with her son and daughter-in-law almost daily and had agreed to move in with them in South Carolina.

Rose told her family a man named Chris would give her a ride to their home. Shortly after, her son missed a call from her phone and later found he could not reach her; calls went straight to voicemail. Her son reported her missing to Gastonia Police on September 2, 2015, after several weeks without contact. Her bank accounts show no activity since she was last heard from, and investigators found few leads.

Does anyone who knew Rose, the man named Chris, or who saw her in Gastonia or along U.S. 321 South in June 2015 have information to share?
