Circumstances of Disappearance

Bonnie Joan Thomas was from Rollingdam, just outside of St. Stephen, NB. She went to a St. Patrick's Day dance across the U.S. border at the Legion in Calais, Maine. Afterward, Bonnie left the Legion alone in her red 1973 Volvo station wagon. She drove back through the Calais/St. Stephen border crossing into Canada. At the Canadian entry point, Bonnie hit the customs booth, causing minor damage to her car. She was last seen talking to the Customs Officer. The next morning her husband called the police and reported her missing. Bonnie's car was found abandoned on March 18, 1978, near St. Stephen on a logging road near the St Croix River. Her purse was not found inside the car.
