Those who live in the apartment complex at 208 North Main Street, say everything seemed as usual with Mary Coulthard in the hours leading up to her disappearance.
“She was happy, she was cheerful,” said Carol Klingforth and Mary Falk.
The friends have known Coulthard for two years. They were shocked to learn she hadn’t returned home by Saturday, after apparently leaving the building alone around 10 p.m Friday.

“Yesterday morning a police officer came and brought her purse. Someone had found it over on Jackson Street and returned it to the police station. And then he was bringing it back to her. She wasn’t here,” Falk said.
“And then they called the emergency vehicle to come check her apartment, and she’s not in her apartment,” Klingforth said.
The friends aren’t sure what happened, but say Coulthard was always trying to help others–almost to a fault.
“Mary had a real soft spot in her heart for the homeless people,” Falk said. “But she was not by any means ‘street smart.’ So she was warned to be careful if she went down by the river, especially at night time to talk to the homeless people. But she still did it anyway. Your guess is as good as mine whether that’s where she was going.”
