A Pike County woman disappeared more than three years ago and family members don't believe they'll ever see her alive again.

"This is my sister. She was beautiful and we need to find her and put her to rest," said Catherine Thacker.

Thacker's tears still flow easily three and a half years after her sister disappeared. Sandy Hess was 43 when she was last seen at her home at Hess Hill in Jonican.

"My sister was a real good person. She was very, very sweet," Thacker said.

Thacker says Sandy had serious health problems including complications from lupus. There's been no contact with her since the day she was reported missing and family members do not believe she's still alive.

"Our sister has been murdered and we won't be able to see her, not unless we see her in Heaven and that's where I know she's at," Thacker said.
