Dear Friends,

We thank each and everyone of you who have been involved in praying, looking for Patricia, and/or supporting her family!!!

At this time, we thought you might like a TIMELINE of what we know:

•	March 17:  Patricia Freeman-Wright left her Calabasas home to drive North to a conference.  She stopped at The Apple Farm in San Luis Obispo for a meal and spent the night at the Sycamore Inn in Avila Beach.

•	March 18:  She checked into the Sheraton Gateway Hotel at the San Francisco Airport.

•	March 19:  We do not know what conference she attended.  The Sheriff's Department and friends have not been able to uncover those facts.

•	March 20:  She attended Sunday morning services at the Self Realization Fellowship Richmond Temple.  Afterwards, she went out to lunch with a group of female friends.  Later, that evening she telephoned her daughter on her cell phone to say she was staying an extra day.

•	March 21:  She checked out of the hotel at l:52 p.m.  Hotel surveillance films show she left via the one non-filmed exit.  She has not been heard from since.

There has been no contact from Patricia ever since.

There has been no activity in her checking account no use of her credit cards and no use of her cell phone.  However, she rarely used her cell phone so that is not unusual.

She was driving a rental car, a 2005 silver Toyota Corolla, California license number 5JSZ571.  The car has not been seen.  The rental car company has cooperated with us; but there has been no news.

•	March 23:  Her children telephoned the hotel because she had not returned home and were surprised that she had left the 21st instead of the 22nd.  They thought she might have needed some time to herself--a private retreat, so to speak.  They were concerned and grew even more so, when she failed to telephone them on Easter, March 27th.

She also did not show up for her church responsibilities in Pacific Palisades on that date.  Patricia has never missed duty in ten years of service.

•	March 28:  Kay and Lenny telephoned the Los Angeles Sheriff's Department and filed a Missing Person's Report.

•	March 30:  Certain parts of the Patricia Freeman-Wright Committee were begun.  At first there were several friends operating independently in their efforts to find Patricia and support her family.

•	April 2:  Her daughter, Kay Wright and her boyfriend, Jeff Siegel, distributed copies of the Missing Person's Report on Highway 101 from Los Angeles up to Avila Beach.  As per recommendation by Detective Harris of the Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department, flyers were left at each off ramp of this freeway:  distribution included gasoline stations, fast food restaurants, motels and hotels, the emergency rooms of every hospital along the way, etc.

Jeff’s sister distributed flyers in the Burlingame area, near the San Francisco Airport where Patricia was last seen.

Kay and Jeff have done a thorough job of continuing to network and assemble resources in the search for Patricia.

•	April 11:  The Patricia Freeman-Wright Website was created.  It can be accessed as follows:

http://www.geocities.com/patricia_freeman_wright.html/

•	April 12:  Email notification of website sent to friends who are coordinating this effort.

•	April l3:  Her son, Lenny Wright met with leadership of the Southern California part of the Patricia Freeman-Wright Search and Support Team.  The past two weeks' activities were reviewed and possible future plans were discussed.  His involvement was very much appreciated and kept the team focused on his and Kay’s needs.

We would now like to share with you a summary of the WORK that has been COMPLETED thus far:

The Patricia Freeman-Wright Search and Support Team:
Friends of Patricia are expressing love and concern as they work with family members on legal, economic, and other relevant issues.  They are also looking into future media coverage and the use of the Sierra Club Bushwackers, investigating airplane coverage of the wide geographical areas along the highways, consulting with friends who are in the police department, exploring the use of psychics, and expanding website coverage.

The first meeting took place on April 13, and the second meeting is planned for April 22.

Thus far, Detective Diane Harris from the Los Angeles Sheriff's Department has NOT received any response from our distribution of the Missing Person's Report.  However, that distribution is a key tool in finding a Missing Person.  Any leads should be forwarded to Detective Harris:

We ask you to continue to pray for Patricia and her family.
