<<Huff, who suffered from Alzheimer’s disease, was never found and no criminal charges were ever filed in connection with her disappearance. Her son, Curtis Huff, ran advertisements in May 1992 offering $15,000 for information about his missing mom, but he died a few years later without ever learning of her fate.

Today, 35 years after Lily Mae Huff vanished, her remains are still out there somewhere.

Behan said police never stopped looking for Huff as long as there was hope she could be alive, and they’ll continue to do the same with Britner.>>
