I do realize that it's 4:00 in the morning and I wish I could say that I'm posting at this ungodly hour because I'm an early riser , but the truth is, I simply haven't made it to bed yet... I doubt I could sleep if I tried... mostly, it's because of two terribly, terribly disturbing emails I received earlier in the evening.

Stacie Albrecht was last seen Sunday, Sept. 29 in North Canton, OH. click picture to enlarge

First, I got this one from a former co-worker back in Canton:

I know that some of you are far away, but if someone is missing, they can end up farther than you think.

Attached please find the Stacie Flyer. Please forward to all friends and family - especially those out of the North Canton area. I used to work with this girl. If you could please forward this flyer to everyone in this area, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks,
Krisite

Shortly thereafter, this came in:

hi there. i know that i haven't talked to you for some time, but one of my friends is missing and if you happen to have any information on her, i thought it would be worth a try... she has been missing since sunday - she never picked up her kids on sunday - yes she has 2 children and it's not like her to do this kind of thing...
attached is a missing persons flier -please look it over and hang some up!

thanks, monica

Kristie, Monica and I worked with Stacie Albrecht at Innis Maggiore Group a few years back. She's genuinely one of the sweetest women I've ever met and a dear friend.

And she's missing.

Although the flyer outlines all the info below, here it is, just in case you have issues looking at the file (.pdf format):

Stacie Albrecht

Weight: 130
Eyes: Dark Brown
Hair: Dark Brown

Car: 2000 Ford Focus 4-Door, Light Blue w/ Liscense # BFV8031
(Small dent on passenger side, "Goddess" sticker on back bumper)

Any information please contact the North Canton police:

This is the flyer that Kristie and Monica are passing around. Please download it and post it somewhere. I'm very worried. Usually this kind of thing is reserved for people on the news or friend-of-a-friend stories, but this time it's... well, it's Stacie. We're praying that she's okay and the explanation for all this is something really stupid and embarrassing, but... take a good look at the picture above and to the right. Click to enlarge it. Download the flyer and put it on a telephone poll. And, if you don't mind terribly, say a prayer for her safety.

Thanks.
