The family of 42-year-old Cheryl Marie McBee and the community of Whitmore have not given up hope of finding her. McBee was reported missing on Monday of last week by her mother, Char Novack. She had last seen her the day before in her Jeep Liberty at the Whitmore General Store. Apparently nobody has heard from her since then. Novack says it’s out of character for her daughter to vanish like this. Last Monday afternoon McBee’s unoccupied Jeep was found in a small creek in the Whitmore area. The Shasta County Search and Rescue Teams had suspended much of the effort until some new items were located by horseback riders on Wednesday. That brought the search and rescue teams back Thursday on horses, dirtbikes and ATV’s. Dogs are in use as well. Cheryl McBee is a 42-year-old white woman, 5-foot-2 and 150 pounds with brown eyes and shoulder length brown hair. She was wearing a dark colored shirt and blue jeans.
