VERNON, B.C. — The mother of a woman who went missing in the Shuswap three years ago has issued a video plea for information.
Ashley Simpson was 32 when she was last seen on April 27th, 2016.
She had been living on Yankee Flats Road south of Salmon Arm.
In the newly-released video, Simpson’s mom, Cindy, says the family isn’t living, it is just surviving one day at a time.
She urges anyone with information to call the RCMP and allow her daughter to go home to her broken-hearted family.
“For the past 35 months I wake up and I pray today is the day we find Ashley, so far my prayers haven’t been answered,” says Cindy Simpson. “Someone please answer my family’s prayers for my Ashley and bring my daughter home.”
Meanwhile, the RCMP say the investigation into Simpson’s disappearance continues.
“Investigators at the Southeast District Major Crime Unit have been working tirelessly to determine what happened to Ashley, prior to being reported missing to police on April 30, 2016,” says Sgt. Janelle Shoihet, BC RCMP spokesperson. “To date, numerous tips have been received and fully investigated, friends and associates have been interviewed and leads followed-up, unfortunately Ashley remains missing.”
Police have also re-released a description of Simpson:
