(SALIDA, Colo.) — It’s been three years since one Colorado mother, Suzanne Morphew, went missing, but, many people are not ready to give up yet.
A remembrance ceremony was held on Saturday, May 13, near Morphew’s hometown of Salida. There, the community is aiming to keep the memory of her alive while also continuing to call for justice. Around 25 people showed up to the ceremony that was held at the Poncha Town Hall.
“The case was just put on the cold case. Just because it’s put on the cold case, doesn’t mean that we’re going to stop,” said Tisha Leewaye, the organizer of Morphew’s remembrance ceremony.
Morphew was last seen on Mother’s Day, May 10, of 2020, in her hometown of Salida.

(SALIDA, Colo.) — It’s been three years since one Colorado mother, Suzanne Morphew, went missing, but, many people are not ready to give up yet.
“She remains the victim of this crime until justice is served for her, and for the community in which she lived,” said Balzer.
The group released butterflies in Morphew’s honor, and in hopes that justice will one day be served. The envelopes that held the monarch butterflies read #shinebrightforSuzanne.
“Like the butterflies being released in memory of my sister, may they remind us that transformation, freedom, and change are possible as we wait and hope for justice and shine bright for Suzanne. I love you Suzanne, your sis, Melinda,” said Balzar, at the end of her audio message.
