Etta Mae Kovaly was 50 when she vanished from Avondale, Arizona, in early June 1989. Her daughter last saw her sometime between June 1 and June 5; the last known contact was a phone call her husband said he received on June 5, though he did not know where she was. She is described as a white female, 5 feet 3 inches, about 110 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes and a long abdominal scar from sternum to bikini line.

When her daughter reported her missing on June 22, 1989, investigators found Etta had left behind her car, checkbook and credit cards, and there had been no activity on her checking account since she was last seen. The case was classified as endangered missing and investigators considered foul play possible. The file remains open with the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office and her disappearance is listed in national missing persons databases.

If anyone knew Etta, her routine, or saw her in Avondale in early June 1989, please share what you know with the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office.
