She has not been seen since leaving her Swissvale home on March 28, 2008.

It's been nearly five years since 30-year-old Faime Lynette Francis left her home in Swissvale Borough and vanished.

Francis is described as being 5 feet 8 inches tall, weighing 115 pounds and having black hair and dark brown eyes. According to the North American Missing Persons Network, she might wear a wig or add weave to her hair. She also wore an engagement-type ring on her left hand and often dressed in all black.

Francis' disappearance concerned family members because she suffers from mental illness. She did not have her medicine with her when she left home and has not been heard from since.
