In the spring of 1994, a disquieting mystery began to unfold in the small community of Proctorville, Ohio, with the disappearance of 44-year-old Mary Elizabeth Sloan. Known to some as Libby, she was a familiar face at St. Mary's Hospital where she worked, with her last reported day at the hospital being March 30, 1994. A few days later, on April 3, 1994, Mary was seen for the last time at a local bank in Proctorville. After this final sighting, she seemingly vanished, leaving behind a life and a community searching for answers. The circumstances surrounding her disappearance were, and remain, sparse on details, deepening the concern for her welfare. The investigation into Mary's whereabouts took a puzzling turn when her vehicle, a black 1994 Chevrolet Cavalier, was discovered abandoned. The car was not found in her hometown but at the Greyhound bus station in Charleston, West Virginia, a significant distance from where she was last seen. This discovery offered no immediate solace or clear indication of what had happened to Mary. It was unclear if she had boarded a bus or if someone else had left her car there. The lack of further evidence or communication from Mary only intensified the distress of those who knew her. Mary Elizabeth Sloan was a woman with blonde hair and blue eyes, standing between five feet and five feet three inches tall. At the time she went missing, her weight was estimated to be between 145 and 200 pounds. A notable physical characteristic was a C-section scar on her abdomen. She was also known to use the last name Beckett. The case of Mary Sloan's disappearance has remained open for years, a quiet but persistent question in Lawrence County. With few leads to follow, the narrative of what happened after she left the bank that April day is incomplete. The discovery of her car in another state created more questions than answers, leaving a void in the lives of her loved ones and a lingering mystery for investigators at the Lawrence County Sheriff's Office and the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation.
