Shereé Whitfield Reveals Her Mother Is Missing, Hasn’t Been Seen In More Than Two Weeks; Sheree Says “I Ask That Everyone Pray For My Mother’s Safe Return Home”

Sandy Springs police are searching for the mother of former Real Housewives of Atlanta star Sheree Whitfield. The 77-year-woman hasn’t been seen in more than two weeks, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

According to police, Thelma Ferguson was last seen by her family on March 23 after leaving her Sandy Springs home to go to the bank.

Ferguson was last seen wearing gray pants and a black shirt and driving a gray 2009 Honda Accord with Georgia tag RMZ5773, police said. She has ties to people living in Ohio and California.

According to her family, the 77-year-old has no known medical issues, Sandy Springs police Sgt. Salvador Ortega said Wednesday.

Whitfield has since released a statement via her Instagram page where she asked her fans to keep her mother and family in their prayers.

“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,” she wrote. “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.”

Anyone who sees Ferguson or knows her whereabouts is asked to call Sandy Springs police at 770-551-6923 or email the detective handling the missing person case at rgehricke@sandyspringsga.gov.
