Denise Potter, 53, has not been seen since she went missing more than two years ago from the garden of her daughter's Dunedin home on March 30, 2015. Searches involving police and hundreds of volunteers failed to find any trace, she has not used her cellphone or bank cards and there have been no leads since on her whereabouts.

Police said yesterday a large-scale urban search and rescue exercise was planned in relation to her disappearance. A police media spokeswoman said the exercise would take place in Dunedin on November 10 in the area where Mrs Potter was thought to have gone missing.

I suddenly thought of Denise today. Not sure why. It's been a long time ... where are you, Denise?

"I wonder if things got on top of her too much, and she felt she was going to be a burden."

"What she has done no one knows . . . that's the hard thing to get your head around. Nothing has turned up at all, no sightings, no evidence."
