Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP22086) and 1 other source
On a spring day in Bay Shore, New York, 44-year-old Lorraine Pepe vanished. The date was April 10, 1981, and she was last seen at the Anderson Adult Home where she was a resident. At the time of her disappearance, she was wearing a full-length green coat, tan slacks, and white shoes. She also wore black-rimmed glasses. Lorraine is described as a Caucasian female, standing at 5 feet 8 inches tall and weighing around 135 pounds, with short brown hair and brown eyes.

The circumstances surrounding Lorraine's disappearance remain largely unknown, with very few details emerging in the decades since she was last seen. She was a resident and patient at the Anderson Adult Home, but information about why she was there or what her life was like has not been made public. The lack of information has made the investigation incredibly challenging for the Suffolk County Police Department, which is handling her case.

Decades have passed without any significant breakthroughs or leads in the search for Lorraine Pepe. Her case is considered a cold case, and she is classified as an endangered missing person. The passage of time has not diminished the hope of finding answers, and investigators continue to seek any new information that could shed light on what happened to her. The overview of this case is one of profound mystery, a woman who seemingly vanished without a trace, leaving behind a void of information and a family and community still waiting for answers.

Last Seen: Apr 10, 1981
