FATHER OF 4 MISSING in CHICAGO

United States
July 23, 2007 11:12am CST
On Friday, July 20, 2007 my husband, Patrick Connelly, called me from work at 9:50 to tell me he had to work late, that he loved me and would see me when he got home. It was the last time I heard from him. No one has seen or heard from him since he left work that night. He was last seen at work: the Southwest Airlines hangar on 55th Street at Midway Airport in Chicago, IL. He drives a gold colored 2001 Ford F150 super crew pickup with 3 carseats in the back. He was wearing blue Southwest airlines pants and shirt and a camo colored hat with "Ford" on the front and brown shoes. He is 5'10" and 160lbs with short brown hair, hazel eyes and stubbly beard. He hasn't answered his cell phone since Friday. It goes right to voice mail which means it is turned off or out of batteries. Patrick is the father of 4 small children who have no clue anything is wrong right now. Meagan just turned 7 last month, Owen is 5 1/2 (6 in 2 months), Brenna is 4 1/2 (5 in November) and Nora is almost 16 months old. If anyone has any information contact the Chicago Police Dept at 312-745-6052

If you post this, I would mention where the plates are from, so people can keep a look out.

I hope everything will end up being ok and you will find or hear from him soon. I am thinking of you and your family. I wish there was more I could do to help.

That is just horrible. I hope he is okay and just stuck somewhere. Good luck and I hope it all works out for you.

Hello, I just read this posting. I hope things have turned out well. I saw no follow up under this posting, so hopefully I missed it on another posting. I don't know what the date of the posting was, except for (about) 8 months. I do hope things have looked up. Let us know.

I don't think I posted a follow up. Things were kind of crazy. Everything is fine now. I finally got a hold of him on his cell. He had just took off because he was unhappy (figures). We were separated for 6 weeks and were nearly about to file for divorce when he suddenly called and begged to come home. He hasn't really left my sight since. That was the beginning of September. We just celebrated our 8th wedding anniversary in January and things are fine now.

That was one of the first postings I read of your's. Then checked the others, and knew the answer as soon as I read those other ones about his manner and actions (and trouble in your relationship). As soon as reading just one of those, I knew he'd taken off. I don't know how much to trust with him, but you sound like you've been through too much. Warm Wishes.
