Roberta Lawrence found dead back in 2002!

A very big thank you to the reader who brought this to my attention!

I do not know how she managed to still be listed as missing for the past six years when in reality she was only missing for about a month and a half. However, she has been listed as found by the Yahoo! ColdCases group (posts at and http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ColdCases/message/54572). One member said she talked with the police in Coraopolis and Roberta's body had been found on February 14, 2002.

In the other message, one source listed was Roberta's information from the Social Security Death Index. That Roberta Lawrence is also from Coraopolis, Pennsylvania, and her date of birth was also November 24, 1944, so they are most likely the same person. The death date is listed by Social Security as February 9, 2002.

Roberta's name is also on a list of recent deaths from February 14, 2002, at http://www.post-gazette.com/obituaries/20020214deaths0214p6.asp:
LAWRENCE, Roberta, 57, of Coraopolis. Wharton-Herrick Funeral Home,
Imperial. (CO)
