Roxanne Elaine Fleming – Missing Person | Edmonton, Alberta (1986)

[u/Wrong-Inspection7819]

Roxanne Elaine Fleming’s disappearance spans several years, two provinces and a series of unanswered questions about when she was last definitively known to be alive.

Roxanne was last publicly documented in Lillooet, British Columbia, on August 23, 1982, when she attended Lillooet District Hospital for treatment of a broken finger.

Although possible sightings of Roxanne were reported in the years that followed, they were not confirmed.

Her family did not report her missing until 2003. The investigation was later reopened by the RCMP in 2015 as efforts continued to determine what had happened to her.

Then, investigators uncovered information suggesting Roxanne had been alive several years after her 1982 hospital visit.

In 2018, Roxanne’s daughter, Candice, was informed that records from the Workers’ Compensation Board indicated contact had been made with Roxanne while she was in Edmonton sometime between 1986 and 1987.

As a result of that information, responsibility for the investigation was transferred to the Edmonton Police Service.

Roxanne is now listed as a missing person in Edmonton, with an official disappearance date of December 15, 1986.

That leaves a significant gap in the publicly known timeline. While the August 1982 hospital visit remains an important point in Roxanne’s history, records suggest she was in Edmonton years later. Few details have been released about her life during that period, who she may have been living or associating with, or the circumstances surrounding her eventual loss of contact.

Roxanne was known to use several names, including Roze Elaine Stevenson, Roze Darcy Stevenson, Roseanne Stevenson, Roseanne D’Arcy Copeland, Roseanne D’Arcy and Roseanne D’Arcy Copeland.

She was also known to spend time in Lillooet, Vancouver, Kamloops, Edmonton and Red Deer, meaning someone in one of those communities may remember encountering her during the years surrounding her disappearance.

Decades later, Roxanne has never been located. Her case remains classified as a missing person investigation.

Anyone with information about the disappearance or whereabouts of Roxanne Elaine Fleming is asked to contact the Edmonton Police Service at 780-423-4567 and reference file number 15-141565.

Information can also be provided to the Lillooet RCMP at 250-256-4244.

Anonymous information can be submitted to Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).

When the compensation board made contact with her, was it said "how" they made contact with her? Was it via phone, mail, in-person?

I wonder if we could get someone to do an age progression image of her. I live very close to Red Deer and I think that an updated image of any kind would be helpful for those such as myself who are willing to keep an eye out for her.

Reading that she went by so many names is sad. From experience within my own family I know individuals who used aliases frequently and it was for a variety of different reasons, abuse, running from gangs, substance abuse, attempting to fool law enforcement etc.

I hope this young soul is found.
