Catherine Ann Decesare, 28, was last seen on July 16, 1985, at her job at the Seven Seas Lounge in Tampa, Florida. She has not been seen or heard from since that day, and the circumstances surrounding her disappearance remain largely unknown. The Tampa Police Department is the investigating agency for her case.
At the time of her disappearance, Decesare was described as a white female, 5'1" tall, and weighing 110 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes. She was working as a dancer at the Seven Seas Lounge, which has been described as a "seedy" establishment. Some accounts suggest she may have entered a taxi after her shift, though this has not been confirmed. Over the years, few leads have emerged in the investigation, and no suspects have been publicly identified.
Decesare had been married to Mark Stephen Goshen, but they were separated before she went missing. Friends have indicated that their relationship was more of a friendship, and he is not considered to be involved in her disappearance. The Seven Seas Lounge, a nude-dancing establishment on Kennedy Boulevard, was known for its raunchy reputation and was the subject of police raids and neighborhood protests over the years before it ultimately closed down. The nature of the lounge has led to speculation that Decesare may have encountered foul play. Her case is listed in national missing persons databases, including NamUs, under the number MP55623.
