There isn't a thread here for Michele but I thought it worth noting that she turned up alive and well but not wanting to hear from her family.

Mom who went missing without a trace 24 years ago is found alive living double life in North Carolina​

A mother of three who went missing 24 years ago has finally been found after living a double life in North Carolina as her family wrestles with the gut-wrenching news.

Michele Hundley Smith vanished in December of 2001 at 38 years old after she left her home in Eden to go Christmas shopping, leaving behind her three children, aged 19, 14 and seven.

But after more than two decades of searching, Smith was found 'alive and well' on Friday by the Rockingham County Sheriff's Office, a release announced.

Something must have been very wrong in her life for her to abandon three children just before Christmas. It's also interesting that she managed to disappear so completely for 24 years without leaving the state where she had been living at the time.

There was another thread about this that I was looking at yesterday but I'm unable to find it now. There's also this thread here

I'm wondering if the original thread was removed because she has been located but doesn't want to hear from family, I'm not sure what the rules on WS are regarding this. I've had a look but couldn't see anything?
