Circumstances of Disappearance

Deanna Brooks was last seen Friday August 24, 2012, at her home on Berkeley Way in Santa Cruz, California. She was supposed to be enroute to San Diego for her mother's birthday, but never arrived.

Deanna has a long history of medical issues including diabetes and possibly early onset dementia. She is a antiques dealer and may visit similar shops or flea markets. Her typical route to her mother's house would be Highway 101.

There has not been any activity on her credit cards or her bank account since August 23, and her vehicle has not been recovered.
