Family pleas for help in finding woman reportedly missing in Visalia
Family members of 63-year-old Tessie Mangohig say they are focusing their search efforts on the Visalia area.

FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) -- Family members of 63-year-old Tessie Mangohig say they are focusing their search efforts on the Visalia area.

The woman first disappeared from Delano on April 29. Family members have also started a flyer campaign with the hashtag "Find Tessie." Tessie's daughter is concerned her mother must be very hungry, thirsty, and tired.

"She's my mom, you know, I mean we haven't seen her," daughter Anna Djukic said. "And we're just trying to keep positive, just try to look for her. We can't stop, we can't sit still knowing that she's out here, we're just constantly on the lookout for her."

Someone reported seeing the woman on Saturday at the Visalia Transit Station.

If you see her, investigators ask that you stay by her side until police arrive.
