Jessica Fern, a Ridgefield Washington State resident, has reportedly been missing since August 15, 2023. She left her home in a 2015 Black/Grey Ford Edge car dressed in a flannel long-sleeve button-up shirt and black shorts. In the wake of her disappearance, the missing woman’s family has taken to social media to plead for information that would lead to her whereabouts.
In a Facebook Post, Fern’s husband shared a missing person’s flier imploring for information about his wife, who was last seen at their home in Ridgefield. Fern’s husband also shared that his wife left with their dog Honzo, a Tan Irish wolfhound/German Shepard mix, on August 15.
The dog was reportedly found near Surprise Beach on the Vancouver, WA waterfront after Jessica’s phone was tracked to the area on August 16. However, the missing woman was not located near the beach.
Fern’s husband, who said that his wife was driving a 2015 Black/Grey Ford Edge with license CCC7734, asked people to contact Ridgefield Police Department if they spot her in the area. Part of the post read:
“Her phone was last tracked to Surprise Beach on the Vancouver, WA waterfront but the phone has not been found. If you spot Jessica or have any information please call the Ridgefield Police Department at 360-887-3556 or my phone at 503-607-7300.”
