WESTFIELD, Pa (WENY) — WENY News is continuing to follow the report of a missing elderly woman from Tioga County, Pennsylvania, who went missing on July 20th. Over 50 community volunteers gathered at the Westfield Municipal Building on Thursday morning to begin their search for 84-year-old Phyllis Potter.

People started looking for Potter just after 8:30 a.m.; the search spanned out into nearby towns surrounding Westfield. A family member said Potter was last seen leaving Missy’s Market on July 20th, sometime between 6 p.m. and 8 p.m. 

An online effort on Facebook to find her has been growing, and on Thursday, people came together to search throughout the area, hoping to find any clues as to where Potter went.

“We’re going to keep searching every day until she’s found,” said Mariah Barker, a volunteer.

Barker was one of many volunteers who helped look for Potter. Barker said she met the woman a few times previously, and works with her daughter-in-law. She said she wanted to help the family the best she could. Read more….
