‘HOLD OUT HOPE’
Missing Colorado mom Suzanne Morphew’s family still holding out hope for her ‘safe return’ six weeks after she vanished
THE FAMILY of a missing Colorado woman is still holding out hope for a safe return after she disappeared six weeks ago.
Missing since Mother's Day, May 10, Suzanne Morphew, 49, was last seen on a bike ride after leaving home in Maysville, Colorado alone.

Her husband, Barry Morphew, was away in Denver at the time at a training course for his job as a volunteer firefighter.
Her family has set up a page saying "Suzanne is still missing and the search goes on. Please continue to pray with us as we hold out hope for her safe return."

The page has raised more than $32,000 - all of the money is currently being handled by her daughter, Mallory Morphew.
According to Daily Mail, the funds will be used for search efforts including food and housing for volunteers.
Suzanne's nephew, Trevor Noel, who set up the page, thanked all those who have helped with the search.
"Whether donating financially, hiking the mountains, hanging posters, canvassing, preparing and delivering food for volunteers and so much more - please know that your thoughtfulness and compassion are so appreciated and that it has sustained the family throughout the difficulty of the search," he wrote.

Shortly after Suzanne disappeared, her husband announced a $100,000 reward.
That number was then doubled by a family friend, bringing it to a total of $200,000 - an offer that still stands.
As of right now, officials have been unable to find information to help narrow the search.
Investigators have conducted community canvases, searching with tracking dogs, water rescue teams, tactical mountain rescuers and took custody of the Morphew residence for any information.
Suzanne was first reported missing by her daughters, Mallory and Macy, who were troubled after being unable to get ahold of her after they returned from a camping trip.
Barry released a video on May 17, pleading the public to help find his wife.

"We love you; we miss you; your girls need you," he said. "No questions asked, however much they want - I will do whatever it takes to get you back. Honey, I love you, I want you back so bad."
The CBI has encouraged anyone with information to call a tip line.

"No matter how small or insignificant something may seem, it could be that key piece of information that help investigators locate Suzanne," they said. "Even if you just recall something that may have seemed out of the ordinary at the time, report that information — it doesn't matter that it's a month later. Investigators still want to know."
Currently, no suspects have been identified.
