MI MI - Ruth Hoffman, 44, River Rouge, 30 June 1986

[Norma]

I got it from the http://ruth.4ourangel.com/ link.

I hate to mention it, but you were awfully close to the River. Even the small one by Zug Island. Did they actively search these area's after she was reported missing?

Did she actually fill out an application at the bar? Is it still available?

HI Pook,
Did you read her story's cause that Is why I wrote everything that had happened to her and what happened with the first police report.
The only reason I'm asking you to read the story's cause my health Is terribley bad I have had 37 surgery's and 9 brain surgery's for fluid on my brain they have had to replace my shunt that many times I hope you can understand I try to answer as many questions as my body will allow but please read the storys and If there Is something you want to know then I would be glad to answer your questions and I really am thankful that you are caring enough to ask but I just had to have a spinal tap and I've had over 300 of them and I'm really In alot of pain but I will be better soon.
The doctor's want me to have the 38th surgery right now but then I would be layed up for months and everything I have done to start over cause of a local police never opened her case well thats all In the missing report story I sure hope you understand and bare with me all of you I'm trying soooo hard and with little help. Debbie Lynn.

I'm a little confused about this.

One site mentioned that she came home early the next morning in hospital scrubs, then changed and went back out to search for those two guys.

Is that when she was dressed in the outfit you all have listed? Or was that what she was wearing when she went to fill out the application for the job the day before??

 

[debbie lynn smeaton]

HI Pook, you have It right she did come home the next morning In hospital scrubs and took a bath and changed her clothes and those are the clothes we listed. I had someone type what I wrote and she did a good job but If you notice anything not right please let me know ok.
Are you reading the story's from heavenly Insp or geocities?
Please let me know cause maybe In a day or two I better make sure everything Is as It should be!!!!
Thanks soooo much Pook and If you got more questions I would be happy to answer them I'm gonna go take a break and I will be back In 20 minute's okay
Deb.

HI Everyone,
I just want you to know I have updated Info on my mom's story's I finally got someone to type the missing report that I wrote and ruth's story.
Please If you gat a chance look at It okay!
Also I think you guy's got a great Idea on featuring a couple missing people a week If I can help In anyway let me know but I am just figuring my mom's story after all this time and I still haven't found anyone to do the age progression.
But my prayers are with all of you take care and talk to you soon.
Sincerely Debbie Lynn.

HI Everyone,
I just got new Information from her driving record that In 1988 my mom got pulled over In walker city for a wrong turn, and also she was spotted In finville michigan at a grocery store In 1995 my cousin Inlaw seen her but before she got a chance to talk to her she was driving away In a green truck.
Thought I would let everyone know the new Information so you can keep your eye's open still waiting on a age progression cause the one that was done would look nothing like her It's because they didn't have the new good photo's that I just posted but I'm sure the doenetwork will do a good one now that they have these better photo's.
Thanks everyone for your support.
Sincerely Debbie Lynn.

Take care and God bless all of you.

HI SEWINGDEB
Thank you sooooo much for caring and I promise I will keep everyone Informed and hopefully I will be getting the age progression soon It's been a few weeks I wonder how long It takes? as soon as I get It I'll post It but she would pretty much look like the pictures on the board just older.
Deb.

Debbie Lynn is there any possibilty your Mom could be living in an adult group home? Or is she too independant for that?
I ask because I used to work part time for doctor that treated group home patients and often they had no family contact. If you think it is possible you might want to send the age progression to adult homes in your area and areas where she has been. I will be glad to fax to the ones in my area once you have the new age progression.

 

[debbie lynn smeaton]

HI Mic730,
She was very Independant but anything could have happened?
She held down a full time job at factory's and towards the time of her disapperance she was applying for a barmaid she also taught herself how to play piano and had a voice like a angel she use to sing at our church In ohio.
She was a normal as anyone but If she got off her med's then she would do silly things never harmful Unless someone really pushed her last button but other than that she was a very loving caring woman that helped so many people In her life I only wish I could help half the people she did and probally still Is but I'll try any avenue that might be a chance again I don't think so but It's worth a shot.
So thanks for all your help.

I was just thinking...is there anyway to see if she has a license now? Are records open for all the states on the internet? If so, an address would be listed.

 

[debbie lynn smeaton]

HI Sewingdeb,
I really don't know I know by pure luck I got that record cause the woman at the state of michigan said I wasn't suppose to get that record cause I sent for them with a copy of the police report and a missing flyer and a copy of my birth certificate and they said no one can get other people records?
So I guess I was luckt to get that and I'm gonna put It up on my site yahoo360 or Is that not a good Idea?
Truly thanks for all you help all of you beautiful people.
