(Continued)Friends, family, air their grief on missing woman's Myspace page
In the months since, leads have dwindled, but the family's commitment to her safe return has not. They have set up a Web page at Myspace.com in Roxanne's name (http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=84543154) and continuing to solicit help in locating her, or at least in solving the mystery of her disappearance.
The Web page also is a place where family members and friends can leave tender messages for the missing young woman. In one recent post, published just after Thanksgiving, her aunt, Audrey Perry wrote this:

"Roxanne,
I want you to know that I am always thinking of you and hoping that you will find your way back home. I think of how responsible you are in helping out with your family. When you were up here visiting with us those summers, you would help me pick the food from the garden and help me make dinner and clean and how mature and nurturing you were and you were such a help with the kids
Today was a day that we as a nation offer up a prayer of thanks at the dinner table. My thoughts and prayer were on you and hoping that where ever you are, you are at peace and through your disappearance that we may realize how precious and fragile this life is and realize that we need Jesus Christ in our life because he has a eternal place that we will all be reunited. I wanted to tell you that I love you so much and not a day goes by that you are not on my mind."
Authorities are asking anyone with information about the case to contact the Austin Police Department at (512) 974-5250 or the Missing Persons Clearinghouse at the Texas Department of Public Safety at (512) 424-5074.
