Have you seen Florence Elma Doolittle?

Missing Since: 1982-06-25 Location: Greensboro, North Carolina

Details

Doolittle was last seen in Greensboro, North Carolina. She missed her exercise class on June 25, 1982, and a friend repeatedly tried to get in touch with her by phone but never got an answer. After almost a week, her friend went to Doolittle’s home in the 5100 block of Lawndale Drive and found it deserted, with unclaimed newspapers dating back to June 26 piled up on the doorstep. All of Doolittle’s belongings, including clothing, luggage and medication, were left behind at home and there were no indications of a struggle. Only her car was missing. She has never been heard from again. Several months later, her 1978 Datsun was found abandoned in the parking lot of the Sharton Plaza Hotel in Charlotte, North Carolina. On the front seat of the car was a personal check dated June 25 and a birthday card for Doolittle’s grandchild. There was no evidence she’d ever stayed at the hotel. Her case remains unsolved.
