Verta Parker, who is disabled and uses a medical walker, usually sticks close to Pacifica Royale Assisted Living Community in Midway City, but she will go out for short strolls that last a couple hours.
She left for her last one around 12:30 p.m. Tuesday, but has not been seen by Pacifica Royale staff or residents since. So the word is being put out in hopes of finding her.
