16 Sept 09

On Tuesday, a helicopter conducted an aerial search of the Bonham area in hopes of locating Katie Jo Brewer, 71, a Bonham resident with dementia who walked away from her home on Carpenter Loop early Saturday morning.

Shoes the family identified as most probably those worn by Mrs. Brewer were found embedded in mud Sunday and, judging from the direction the shoes were pointed, it would appear the woman was making her way to the southeast part of Bonham where she lives on Carpenter Loop.

Mrs. Brewer is 5' 2", 116 lbs. with short gray hair and blue eyes. She was last seen wearing a navy blue and white horizontally striped shirt and navy blue pants. She is possibly barefoot. Mrs. Brewer has been diagnosed with Alzheimer's.

[FONT=arial, helvetica, sans-serif]Officials believe Mrs. Brewer may still be in the east Bonham area, but after scouring that section of town several times, there is a chance the primary focus of the search may be expanded.

All Fannin County residents are asked to please check garages, vehicles, outbuildings and wooded areas near their property.

If you have any information that might help, please call the Bonham Police Department at 903-583- 2141.

BONHAM -- The heartbreak of a loved one lost continues for Bonham resident Tom Brewer, whose wife, Katie Jo Brewer, disappeared Sept. 12, 2009. The tips to Bonham police on Mrs. Brewer's whereabouts dried up within a few weeks, said Bonham Police detective Terry Bee. Neither the family nor the police has given up, and Bee said they will follow up on every lead that comes their way.
