Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP96638) and 3 other sources
Delores Marie Dotson was reported as a missing person from Missoula, Montana. Online case records identified her as a 67-year-old White/Caucasian woman, 5 feet 3 inches tall and about 150 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes. NamUs listed her case as MP96638 and gave her date of last contact as December 15, 2021, in Missoula. The Missoula Police Department was identified as the investigating agency.

The public details available about Delores’s disappearance were limited. The Charley Project stated that she was last seen in Missoula on December 15, 2021, and that she had not been heard from afterward. The same profile noted that she may have traveled to Iowa after her disappearance, but it did not provide further confirmed details about where she went, who last saw her, or the circumstances surrounding the loss of contact.

The attached case data indicates that Delores’s case resolution status is Alive. That means she has been found alive and this is no longer an active missing persons case. The exact date she was located is unknown from the information provided, and the publicly available sources reviewed do not give clear details about the resolution. Because the available resolution information is vague, no specific recovery date should be stated.

Delores’s case reflects the uncertainty and concern families face when a loved one is missing and only limited public information is available. What is clear from the online records is that she was the subject of a missing person case originating in Missoula, that authorities documented her physical description and possible travel to Iowa, and that the case has since been resolved with Delores located alive.
