Friends and family haven't given up hope on missing Tri-State woman
HENDERSON CO., KY (WFIE) -
A service was held on Sunday afternoon to support a Tri-State woman who's been missing for over a decade.
Heather Teague was last seen on Newburgh Beach back in 1995, and on Sunday, her family says they still have hope.
14 News spoke with Heather's mother Sarah, who says she's glad for all the community support and that she knows her daughter will come home.
Heather Teague was 23 years old in 1995 when a witness says he saw a man drag Heather off Newburgh Beach at gunpoint. 17 years later, Heather is still missing, but certainly not forgotten.
Family and community members gathered with T-shirts, purple ribbons and balloons, showing awareness of the disappearance and honoring Heather.
Her mother tells 14 News she hopes answers will come soon.
"I know Heather's coming home. There's not a doubt in my heart anywhere. Someday, every question I've ever asked will be answered. Never had support like this in 17 years. It just lets me know that we're close. We're really close," Sarah said. "For two weeks, I've had this feeling in my heart we're close. The truth is going to come out and it's just about to be over."
Sarah says she's set up a scholarship in Heather's name at Webster County High School where Heather graduated in 1990. Sarah says she and her children will help choose a recipient, a student who tries hard and needs support.
