Summary based on the NamUs case record (can2014002117) and 2 other sources
In the autumn of 1995, a 29-year-old mother named Michelle Jeanette Harmer vanished from her home in Edmonton, Alberta. The last time her family had any contact with her was in early November of that year. Michelle was a mother with family ties in the Edmonton area. At the time she went missing, she stood at 5'7' with a weight of approximately 122 pounds, and she had blonde hair and brown eyes. A distinguishing feature was a tattoo of a bird. It has been noted that she was also known to sometimes wear wigs.

The official report of her disappearance was not made until January 13, 1996, when an acquaintance of her family notified the authorities. This individual had last spoken to Michelle on October 31, 1995. The lack of contact with her children and other family members since November 1995 was uncharacteristic and raised concern. Information that emerged during the investigation suggested that Michelle was leading a high-risk lifestyle at the time she went missing.

Years have passed since Michelle Harmer was last seen, and her case remains unresolved. Despite the passage of time, law enforcement has continued to investigate her disappearance. There have been suggestions that she might be residing in the Okanagan region of British Columbia, specifically between Penticton and Salmon Arm, and may have also spent time in Enderby. However, these leads have not resulted in locating her. The overall picture of Michelle's case is one of quiet disappearance, with the initial report being delayed and few public leads emerging over the subsequent years. The lack of any communication with her family, especially her children, is a central and painful aspect of her long-unanswered disappearance.

Last Seen: Nov 1, 1995
