Catherine was last seen at her daughter's in Toledo, Ohio on Tuesday, Sept. 18 at 7:00 p.m. Her family believed she was leaving Toledo and driving to her lake house in the Wall Lake area LaGrange, Ind. She was reported as a missing person on Sept. 24.

Sackrider's pickup truck was found in a Toledo suburb Sept. 25.
