Kathleen Henson and her son Royce Henson were last contacted on March 23, 1979. Henson was en route to the home of a friend and did not arrive.
Henson's older son, who was 9 at the time, arrived at their home in the 600 block of South Peoria Avenue that night after his father dropped him off following a visit. He fell asleep and woke up to realize that she had never come home. The car he went missing in was a 1969 Chrysler 4-door sedan, brown over gold in color.
On March 25, 1979 her vehicle was found at the corner or Ute Street and Peoria Avenue. Foul play is suspected.
