Missing Since: 1998-04-01 Location: Daytona Beach, Florida
Van Beek’s daughter, who lived in Houston, Texas, last saw her mother when she visited her in Daytona Beach, Florida during Bike Week in April 1998. Van Beek was a Bike Week and Biketoberfest regular who frequented area biker bars. She and her daughter went to biker bars and shopped together during her daughter’s visit. In May 1998, Van Beek’s boyfriend called her daughter and said Van Beek had moved out of the home they shared on Fairview Avenue, just west of Ridgewood Avenue. He stated she packed her things and left with someone else in a White truck. When Van Beek’s daughter did not hear from her mother after that, she contacted police. Van Beek has never been heard from again. The exact date of her disappearance is unknown. There has been no activity on Van Beek’s credit cards or Social Security number since her disappearance. Her daughter has since moved to Daytona Beach to be closer to family. Van Beek’s case remains unsolved. The circumstances surrounding her disappearance are unclear.
