(KRON) — In an emotional video titled “A New Message from Amy Hillyard’s Sister, Alexandra” posted Wednesday to BringAmyHome.com, the sister of the Farley’s Coffee co-owner who went missing in late March — and whose search has gained national attention with volunteers flying in from as far as Texas to join the Bay Area canvassing — pleaded for Amy’s return. She’s asking for substantial public information regarding her missing sister’s whereabouts, saying that “the unknowing is becoming unbearable” and for anyone who may be with her to “please let us know that she’s okay.”
In the video, Alexandria says, “Amy, I had a dream the other night that you were alive and that you’re okay. I know it was just a dream, but it gave me hope. I believe that you are out there somewhere and I pray that wherever you are, you are safe. All of us who love you are desperate for information.”
Amy Hillyard, 52, who is considered at risk due to a medical condition, was initially reported as being last seen sometime after 2 p.m. on Wednesday, March 25 in the 500 block of Radnor in Oakland and there were reports that she was spotted shortly after. Loved ones are also asking those who live in the neighborhoods of Cleveland Heights, Lake Merrit, the Lakeshore District and Crocker Highlands to look at any home surveillance video from around the 2 p.m. timeframe.
Past volunteer searches have also centered on Dimond Park, where combed video footage from investigators also placed Hillyard around 4:30 p.m. in that area on the same day she vanished…
