Have you seen Joy Morrow?

Police are set to resume a search this morning for an 82-year-old woman missing from her home in the Hunter region.

Joy Morrow was last seen about 6.20pm on Sunday at her home in Abermain, when she told her husband she was going to walk the couple’s dog. She has not been seen since.

Officers from Hunter Valley Police District were alerted and a ground and air search commenced involving local police, SES volunteers, residents and the police airwing, PolAir.

The search has continued throughout the night but has been temporarily suspended with it to resume this morning.

Police are renewing their appeal for anyone who may have seen Mrs Morrow, or her dog Susie, to call Muswellbrook Police or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Mrs Morrow is described as being of Caucasian appearance, about 152cm tall and 80kg with a solid build and short dark hair; she speaks with an Irish accent.

At the time she was wearing a multi-coloured shirt with three-quarter sleeves, black skirt and slippers. She was walking with her 13-year-old Maltese terrier named Susie. Police say Mrs Morrow may appear disoriented or confused.

Police are especially asking local residents to check their sheds, backyards and garages in case Mrs Morrow has taken shelter overnight.
