''In December 2003, my biological mother, Robin Monique Ellis, was working as a pizza delivery driver for Woodland Village Pizza in Philadelphia. On December 7th, she left the shop around 5:00 p.m. to deliver four orders. She completed at least one delivery but never returned to work and was never seen again. Two days later, her car—a brown 1995 Hyundai Elantra—was found abandoned on northbound I-95 near the Academy Road exit, approximately 20 miles from where she was last seen. There were no signs of foul play, and despite investigations, her disappearance remains unsolved.''

Details of Disappearance
Ellis was last seen at approximately 5:00 p.m. on December 7, 2003 at her job at Woodland Village Pizza in the vicinity of 63rd and Woodland Avenue in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. She picked up four delivery orders of pizzas, totaling less than $50, and delivered at least one of them, but never arrived back at work. She has never been heard from again.
Ellis's brown four-door 1995 Hyundai Elantra with the Pennsylvania license plate number FDY7311 was located on December 9, two days later, on northbound Highway 95, just north of Academy Road in Philadelphia. There was no sign of foul play at the scene.
Ellis's home on Litchfield Street in Philadelphia was burglarized twice prior to her disappearance, but it is unknown if the crimes are connected to her case. She was a frequent caller at a Philadelphia radio station, but has not called them since December 7. None of her relatives, including her teenage son who lives in Tampa, Florida, have heard from her.
Foul play is possible in Ellis's case. She is believed to have been working illegally as an unlicensed cab driver at the time of her disappearance and investigators believe she may have met with violence at the hands of one of her customers. Her loved ones say it is uncharacteristic of her to leave without warning. Her case remains unsolved.''
