From the Publisher:
Dear Readers,
As most of you hopefully know by now, Wakulla County citizen Cheryl Hodges Dunlap has been missing from her home since this past Saturday, December 1, 2007. According to several friends who were on their way home from Tallahassee yesterday afternoon, it appeared as if a search was being done along Highway 319 just past the Wakulla County/Leon County line. Cheryl's abandoned car was found there on the side of the road. If ANYONE knows anything at all, no matter how small or insignificant it might seem, about Cheryl's whereabouts or activities prior to her disappearance, please call Capt. Randall Taylor or investigator Scott DelBeato at 926-0800. She has two sons who need her back home safely.
There are lots of holiday activities taking place this weekend around the county, so check out our links below to find out all the details about times, locations, etc.
Have a good weekend, and please keep Cheryl and her family in your thoughts and prayers.
Sincerely,
Mary Katherine Westmark
