Hey Matt!

Thank you for the Great Update! The waiting Begins! Very exciting to have such a promising lead though... (crossing fingers and toes)... Like we have said before... it would be sad for Rhonda's family if she did turn out to be Sharon... but they would have closure and also know how amazing she turned out to be in spite of the adversity she had in her life. Sounds like Rhonda's life was challenging from the very beginning. Such a Sad, Sad Story.

WELCOME HEATHER AND JEN!!

 

[J. Brannagh]

Does this look any good?

I definitely see similarities...Shape of the nose, attached earlobes, and though the "glam shot" of Sharon really doesn't show it, we know that she has the same unique corners to her mouth.

Matt Birkbeck,

Thank you for continuing along with the quest for "Sharon's" identity. Also, thank you for continuing to update us, here at WS. We really appreciate it. (I'm speaking for myself but I believe that "we" all appreciate you!)

J. Brannagh,

Thank you so much for the side by side photos. I feel there is a strong resemblance in the side by side you posted as well as the photos of "Sharon" and Rhonda Moore (the baby photo posted here).

Cubby,

Thank you so much for your never ending patience!

Tuffy101,

Thank you so much for everything you do here. I am not sure if I can count the ways you are so valuable to looking into this case.

Lots of thanks to all of you. I pray "Sharon's real identity" will be discovered and some sort of peace will be had by all her family, friends and each 'sleuther' that "Sharon's story" has touched along the way.

Cubby,

Thank you so much for your never ending patience!

respectfully snipped.

Those of us 'cradle Chicago Cubs fans' have patience in our 'blue' blood. It just comes naturally... has too, to follow the Cubs.

I know that was OT, but gotta add something to relieve the tension and sadness of waiting on answers for some of these cases sometimes.

I just pray the DNA doesn't take years.... Can a Cub fan hope we have DNA results on the Rhonda-Sharon possible match before the all star break? or at least before the end of the 2010 baseball season?

hugs, prayers and hoping this is finally the answer!

I agree. Especially knowing this photo of Sharon is a glam shot.
It is hard for me to tell if Sharon has attached earlobes or not. It is hard to see in the glam shot photo if she is wearing an earing which hides her earlobe, or not. IIRC, back about the time this photo was taken weren't those big 'button' style earrings popular? - I don't expect Shadow to know the answer, lol....

Maybe Sharon had earrings on in this photo her hair hid....

I talked to the the CDC that does DNA testing about 600.00 is what i was told I am posting some information what i was told they can do a test them selfs requesting the DNA that NCFMEC to share with them...I dont recallof the required information that was a call I made last year.
That sounds good to maybe WS can get togeather on this ? Sure would be better then waiting a year the results would 3 to 10 days.
Do a search for CDC to see some information.

Found this photo on line today of Rhoda Moore

I can cleary see the attached earlobes here. I see them in the pics of Rhonda's bio mom too.. Can someone do the above pic with Rhonda's mom bio pic to for the attached earlobe example?

ETA: Never mind. Tuffy' beat me to the question and posted the side by side on the two pics.

Tuffy, you rock! :blowkiss:

Cubby,

I really hope too that it doesn't take till the all star break or the end of the season.. I am a Pittsburgh Pirates fan and we have had 17 consecutive losing seasons..


I really feel strong about Sharon being Rhonda/Melissa especially after seeing her biological mothers picture...wow!!!

Keep praying Sharon finally gets an identity...

 

[shadowangel]

When Jennifer Fisher, Sharon's high school friend, visited the Marshall home, she saw a photograph of a woman Sharon identified as her mother, Linda.

It would be intriguing to find out if Jennifer finds anything familiar in the photo of Rhonda/Melissa's birth mother posted here.

 

[shadowangel]

Yet another point...During his brief 6-month stay with the US Army (1959-1960) Floyd was stationed in Oklahoma, most likely at Ft Sill. According to the information provided to Shelsearay, this is the Army base to which Rhonda/Melissa's adoptive mother was returned following her prostitution trouble in Germany.
The Ft Sill/Lawton OK area may be the last place Rhonda/Melissa was seen before her disappearance.

 

[shadowangel]

I know I'm probably seeing things again...But while looking at the cover photo of Sharon from A Beautiful Child, I noticed that she has was I can only describe as a "part" in the eyebrow above her right eye. I can see the same thing, possibly from a scar, in other photos of her (especially the "ad" photo that Floyd placed into her senior yearbook, which I posted earlier).
Upon looking at the photo of Rhonda that CarlK90245 so graciously cleaned up for us, I notice what appears to be a scar through her eyebrow of the same eye and same proximal location.

I attached the two photos with the areas circled for comparison.

I'm sorry if I missed this, but what happened to the prostitute adoptive mother?

 

[shadowangel]

From the person who was in contact with Shelsearay stated, the bio-family were able to contact her at some point (I have no idea when) and she reportedly told them that, instead of turning Rhonda/Melissa over to the authorities (Child Protective Services or some similar agency possibly?) she told them that she had given Rhonda/Melissa to someone and couldn't remember who.

I'm guessing she's out there somewhere, and the bio-family members investigating Rhonda/Melissa's disappearance may be in contact with her. That's purely speculation on my part however. I'd also think the adoptive father might be curious as to what happened to his daughter as well.

Did he ever report her missing? God, this is incredibly awful. It is beginning to shape up, to me atleast, that Sharon never had anyone she could trust.

 

[Jen_Illingsworth]

Someone mentioned here (but I guess removed their post?) that he/she saw Rhonda Moore's cousin Jerri's FB profile pic & found similarities between her and Sharon. I wanted to add that I noticed that too! Jerri has posted some comments on the "A Beautiful Life" FB page (and that's how I know.)

I've always wondered one (unrelated) thing about Floyd: Since we know he gave 3 of Sharon's kids up for adoption (my memory is fuzzy here so bear with me), why was he so obsessed with Michael? (i.e. Why did he kidnap him?)

Another thing I always wonder: If Sharon had been alive to this day, do you think the whole matter could have ever come to light? I guess I just can't reconcile to the fact that nobody knew what Sharon and Michael were going through and nobody helped.

If Sharon had been alive:

1. Michael would probably be an adult with a loving mother (who probably would have escaped from FDF by now).
2. FDF would never have needed to steal the truck to kidnap Michael because he wouldn't have had any idea where they were.
3. The photos of the abuse of Sharon and the torture of Cheryl Commesso would probably never have come to light because they were found taped to the underside of that truck.
4. Cheryl Commesso would probably still be an unidentified decedent.
5. FDF would probably still be on the streets.

Thanks CarlK90245.

There's nothing more chilling than the thought of FDF out in the streets...
