Bumping for Wendy. I am no longer local (Chicago, where I live isn’t
that far, probably <50 miles) but I have previously worked in the area and lived nearby.

She walked off in the middle of her work shift at the pizza place her long-term boyfriend owned.
IF (moo, bbm, spec) she’d worked there as long as they’d dated, it was something like fifteen years, and they did live together.
So she walks out, June 12 2021, and this was backed up by co-worked “John” who was terminally? ill and has since passed away. No one has seen her since, and the Honda SUV registered to her BF but driven by her was “ recovered June 17 in the 400 block of Buell Avenue in Joliet” (source:
June 2021 patch article ).
Regarding this discovery, her BF stated he’d not delivered to that area in a long while, or words to that effect (JMO, moo, as I can’t find link this moment).

article (<—source) states “several people believe they saw Gessing frequenting the Motel 6 in Joliet at McDonough Street and Larkin Avenue, according to police,” and that her phone was found “in Romeoville in the area of Taylor Road, according to police…(who) are now in the process of having the phone analyzed to learn more about Gessing's whereabouts.”
