The Elkhart community is coming together to help two young girls during the holiday season, while police continue to search for their missing mother. Anastacia Reyes-Cortes, 35, of Elkhart was last seen shopping alone at a Kroger store more than three months ago. Her car was later found damaged by fire miles away in Wakarusa. Police are investigating but there are no updates in the case.
The woman's family hasn't heard from her since, and now people are trying to give her two girls some joy during this time of sadness.
Nine-year-old Maria and 6-year-old Erika Ortega are Anastacia's two daughters.
There's a picture on the family's refrigerator that one of the girls drew, and translated in Englsh, it says "For my mommy."
"I miss my mom," Erika said.
Reveriano works about a mile away and Ana's family believes he may know more than he is letting on.

Anastacia Reyes-Cortes was featured tonight on Cold Case Files on local TV. Has a review of the case. She walked kids to school then walked to El Paraiso Supermarket. The receipt and groceries were in the home.
Price also says around 10:10am there was contact between the cell phones of Ana and Reveriano. He says the call was not long, and the details of that conversation are based on Reveriano's account of the call. Police say Reveriano told them the two talked about her plans to go to Kroger and El Paraiso.
That was the last anyone can account for Ana's whereabouts. From there, police say, she vanished.
She wasn't at home that afternoon when friends came to pick her up for work.
And her van was gone -- despite the fact that Anastacia doesn't drive.
Later the families burned out van was found...
The location where the van was found is not on a busy street. In fact, many believe it is not somewhere you would know about unless you were somewhat familiar with the area. And that is one of the issues that is bothering some people who know Anastacia. Reveriano works about a mile away and Ana's family believes he may know more than he is letting on.

(Detective Sergeant Steve Price)Then, on The 28th, a horrifying discovery in Wakarusa: the missing van was found burned out behind a cluster of businesses. A maintenance worker found the van behind a building on Ward Street.
"It was more just tucked behind a building, maybe a couple feet into a corn field where the vehicle clearly had been burned. And nobody saw it. We can only assume that it was burned under the cover of darkness because it didn't get reported as an active fire. It was only after that the maintenance guy found the vehicle after it had burned itself out," says Price.
Does it say what the husband does for a living? I wonder how much actual supervision he has and if he would have been able to get away to do this without anybody noticing? Did he leave his place of work on his lunch hour? That hour would not be supervised. Sounds like he did not like her trying to establish some independence!! He maybe prefers the type of woman that doesn't go against his authority? Poor girl!!
I believe he is/was a blue collar worker in one of many small Elkhart factories. Usually they have 1/2 hour for lunch, but still time to kill IMO.
The Elkhart County Sheriff's Department is working to identify human remains found Tuesday night by a mushroom hunter in a field in the 55000 block of County Road 27, south of Bristol.
