The Broward Sheriff's Office is seeking assistance from the public in locating 84-year-old Cecelia Marie, a woman reported missing from Deerfield Beach. In a statement obtained by WSVN, a Silver Alert was issued last night after Marie was last observed around 2:30 p.m. near the 170 block of Markham Drive.
Marie, who suffers from multiple medical conditions including Alzheimer's, dementia, and diabetes, along with congestive heart failure, was described as last seen wearing a blue button shirt, blue jeans shorts, and white sneakers. She is believed to be driving a silver 2006 Chevy Trailblazer with the Florida tag LMFW44. Having Alzheimer's, the details about her attire and her vehicle offer a critical lifeline in the search.
Advising the authorities of Cecelia Marie's condition, the family has emphasized the urgency given Marie's healthcare needs. According to the information given by WSVN, her medical status elevates the concern for her well-being the longer she remains unaccounted for.
Members of the community with any knowledge about Cecelia Marie's whereabouts are urged to step forward with information. The BSO non-emergency number to contact is 954-764-HELP (4357), or Detective Leonard Charla can be reached directly at 954-321-4274. Driving a silver 2006 Chevy Trailblazer, the hope is that someone might spot the vehicle which could lead to her safe return. A MISSING PERSON ALERT posted on social media further amplifies the call for public vigilance in this search effort.
