FAIRVIEW PARK, Ohio — It's been 45 years since 17-year-old Yvonne Regler went missing from a Fairview Park gas station.

Regler was last seen on August 8, 1977, at the Sunoco she worked at on Lorain Road.

Fairview Park Police released a timeline on Monday of her disappearance.

Regler was originally scheduled to work at the North Olmsted location that day from 7 a.m. until 3 p.m., but was moved to the Fairview Park location at 8 a.m.

Police said she spoke with a friend and family member between 10:30 a.m. and 11 a.m.

Regler was seen by customers until 1:25 p.m. when two customers and a coffee machine repair person arrived between 1:30 p.m. and 2 p.m. and found the story empty. No one contacted the police.

When her coworker came in at 2:45 p.m. he found her purse, cigarettes, book and partially eaten lunch, but she was nowhere to be found.

He called the police.

Fairview Park Police have spent the last 45 years investigating and reaching out to multiple organizations for assistance.

Regler would be 62 years old.

Anyone with information on her location is asked to call police at 440-356-4418.
