Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP21482) and 5 other sources
In the winter of 2009, a 48-year-old woman named Evelyn Vasquez vanished from her home in Jersey City, New Jersey. On or around February 4th, she informed a friend of her intention to go out, but she never came back. At the time of her disappearance, Evelyn was described as a Hispanic female, standing at 5 feet 3 inches tall and weighing approximately 160 pounds. She had black hair and brown eyes. A notable detail in her case is that she had no teeth. It is also known that Evelyn had previously resided in the Nashville, Tennessee area.

Concerns for Evelyn's welfare were heightened by the fact that she had known mental health issues and required medication. The circumstances surrounding her saying she was going out and then never returning have left her loved ones with many unanswered questions. The lack of information about what she was wearing or any personal items she may have had with her has made the search even more challenging for investigators.

The Jersey City Police Department opened an investigation into her disappearance, with her case number listed as 09-7395. The New Jersey State Police Missing Persons Unit is also involved in the ongoing efforts to locate her. Her case has been entered into the National Missing and Unidentified Persons System as MP21482. Over the years, law enforcement has sought the public's assistance, hoping that someone might come forward with information that could lead to a breakthrough in the case. The overview of this case is that Evelyn Vasquez, a woman with known health concerns, disappeared after telling a friend she was going out and has not been seen or heard from since, leaving a void in the lives of those who know her.
