Sheree Whitfield is asking for the public’s help in finding her missing mother.
The former “Real Housewives of Atlanta” star took to social media on Wednesday and revealed her 77-year-old mother, Thelma Ferguson, has been missing for over two weeks.
According to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Ms. Ferguson was last seen on March 23 when she left her Sandy Springs home to go to the bank.
In her social media post, Sheree said her mother has gone on vacations in the past without notifying the family, but this is the longest she has ever gone without contacting family or friends.
Sheree Whitfield has been posting selfies, #TBT, and Tik Tok videos over the past week and made no mention of her mother being missing until the story ran in the AJC.
In her post, she noted that she is a very private person when it comes to family matters.
Please keep my mom and my family in your prayers! We all know that prayers can move mountains!!! I was hesitant to post my concerns for my mother’s safe return because, although I have been in close contact with the police for the past two weeks, I’m also pretty private when it comes to my family. Also, in the past, my mom has taken personal vacations without letting the family know and we respect that side of her. However, this is the longest she have gone without reaching out to anyone from the family or her friends. Right now we are leaning on God and staying positive and prayerful for her safe return home.
HOME is where the HEART is and prayer in numbers work.
As we all continue to navigate through these uncertain times, remember the blessings of having each other…. Family is everything!
I ask that everyone pray for my mother’s safe return home. And know that our family will be internally grateful. ????
**If anyone has any information we ask that you please call Sandy Springs police at 770-551-6923 or email the detective handling the missing persons case at rgehricke@sandyspringsga.gov. ?? Thank you!
