Doris Stalker, of Hilliard, Washington Twp, Butler County, was last seen on Monday, November 28, 1983 in the parking lot of an Emlenton store.
Mrs Stalker and her husband had reportedly driven to a pharmacy in Mariasville to have a prescription filled but found that the pharmacy was closed. They then rode over to the (former) Super Duper market in Emlenton. Mr Stalker went into the store while Doris waited in the car. He said he was only gone for six or seven minutes but when he got out to the car, at around 8pm, the passenger side door of the car was open and Doris was gone. Her purse was still in the car.
The following day, state police, volunteer firefighters and bloodhounds searched the area around the supermarket and scuba divers searched the nearby Allegheny River, but no trace of Doris was found.

I would usually avoid non-MSM sources but I think Unsolved cases (spin-off from murderer/murdered thread) is acceptable because the poster on this site is directly involved. He bought his property from the husband and has posted a picture of a K9 unit searching his garden.

Clearly LE had suspicions about the husband.

Bump for Doris. She was quite petite, reported to be 5’0” and 100 pounds. She was last known to be wearing the following:

Blue jeans
3/4 length imitation brown leather coat
Brown suede shoes
Diamond ring
Wide wedding band
Birthstone ring

I was unable to find her month of birth, only the year of 1929. Month of birth may help to determine the birthstone ring she was wearing, if it was for her birthdate.
