For more than six weeks, a Kimberling City area teen has been missing.
Haven Shelton's family remains diligent in their search for her, despite the fact that there have been no significant leads.
"Every day, it just seems like a bad dream that we can't wake up from, and can't really be happening to us," said Jan, Haven's mother, in a post on the Bring Haven Home Facebook page. "These are things that happen to other people, or on TV."
Haven, who was discovered missing on the morning of June 11, is 19 years old. Haven is 5 feet tall, weighs 110 pounds, with shoulder length brown hair, brown eyes, and a fair complexion. Haven has special needs that require her to take medication daily. She left home without her medication and with no phone and no bank card or cash.
Although there have been no major clues to Haven's whereabouts, her family has faith that they will see their daughter again soon.
Said Jan, "We are not losing hope. We have said over and over during the past 12 or 13 years that we never give up on Haven, and that is not going to change now. This is still an active investigation being worked by the Stone County Sheriff's Department with some big assistance coming from our friends at the Greene County Sheriff's Department. They continue to follow leads daily and we hope to continue the investigation in some different directions as well."
"We will keep going back to the drawing board as many times as necessary until we find the clue that we need," Jan continued. "Until then, we just have to have faith that we will find Haven when we are supposed to find her. Let's just all love each other a little harder in Haven's honor."
If anyone has any information on the whereabouts of Haven Shelton, please contact the Stone County Missouri Sheriff's Department, or call 911.
For now, Haven's family clings to the hope they find in scripture. "And now, these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love." 1 Corinthians 13:13.
