July 11. In Gouverneur, she was last seen just after noon in a municipal
parking lot that day, but state police report she was seen in Potsdam

sometimes wears contacts.
On the 11th, she was reported to be wearing a yellow t-shirt, black
shorts with white stripes and carrying a light blue backpack.
“As her father it's my job to try to help,” Leon Wells told

but as a follower of North Country Now, pics are one of the first
things I look at and hopefully others do as well.”

smart. She is going to be captain of varsity swim this year and is whole

bookworm. Her favorite stores in our mall are Borders, Hot Topic,
