OLMOS PARK, Texas — On Saturday afternoon, Suzanne Simpson's sister, Teresa Clark, spoke to the media for the first time since Suzanne's Oct. 6 disappearance. Clark read a statement on behalf of her family that was in part prepared by Chandler, Suzanne's oldest daughter.
"Suzanne was a beloved mother. She was an incredible person," Clark said. "We want everyone to know that we are devastated by the loss of my sister. I am here to be a voice for my sister."
Simpson has been missing since Oct. 6, when police say a neighbor saw her arguing with her husband Brad in front of their Olmos Park home.
Brad Simpson was arrested three days later in Kendall County on related charges, and authorities have said he has been uncooperative.
Authorities have searched in a wooded area near their home, a property in Boerne and a landfill.
On Saturday, the search continued.
Officials with the City of Alamo Heights closed two gates into Olmos Park. The gate located at Dick Friedrich Drive and the gate at Devine Road, for another search.
Olmos Park police brought in Texas Search and Rescue, who have advanced equipment, technology and resources focusing on wooded areas in and around Olmos Park.
"The search will continue and we will not stop until we find her. We are going to bring Suzanne home, because Suzanne was an incredible mother, daughter and sister," said Clark.
Clark also expressed gratitude for all the law enforcement agencies, search and rescue teams and friends that have opened their arms and offered prayers as the search for Suzanne continues.
"Just trying our best every single day, praying that she will be found, because at the end of the day, we want to have closure," said Clark.
