Missing Person - Peggy Mangan (Dinneen)

Can't find a link but apparently Peggy was last seen yesterday in the Maple Centre between 3pm and 5pm and this sighting has been confirmed by Garda.

Again, do not know how credible this information is but it makes sense considering where she was! Will post a link asap

Yeah the Maple Centre off the Navan Road. Apparently the guards have checked CCTV and confirmed it, it was up on the official Facebook page for the search for her!

I'm really hoping they find her soon. There is a housing estate just behind the maple centre and it's accessible through the back near the Tesco. I'm hoping that's where she went, and maybe hopefully she'll find her way towards the barracks and someone will recognise her, that area is also close to the Phoenix park, but the gate she'd walk through is close the Garda HQ. My own grandmother lives in that estate and I've sent her the information poster, got in contact with a few I know from the area to let them know to keep their eyes peeled.

Hoping she is found soon, cannot imagine anyone going missing from my own family, but with a condition like Alzeimers it must make it all the more difficult knowing that it's quite unlikely she'll find her way home or even possibly realise she's lost!

Apparently the official search page is gone, for some bizarre reason, and the DID electrical page is the place to keep most up to date. I suppose because the staff there can update as often as needed whereas if family are out searching they cannot!

I'm delighted to hear she was spotted yesterday. Was beginning to lose hope for her a little.

Her son has said that the dog hasn't been found. I really thought the key to finding this lady was her dog. If he's no longer with her surely somebody would've spotted him wandering around with his lead still on him. I know not everybody is a dog lover and a lot wouldn't pay attention to a wandering dog but this story is getting a lot of attention so surely if he was straying on his own somebody would've found him by now. hopefully that's a good sign, maybe they're sitting in a shed or outhouse somewhere and will soon be found.

I cant understand if people are spotting this poor lady, why arent they approaching her or calling the guards while following her.

The poor lady, really hope she is found safe.

Everytime im out in my car im keeping an eye out for her as I dont live too far from where she has been spotted.

Because not everyone knows she's a missing person when they see her. Then read the story and realize who she was. I would have thought that was fairly obvious.

Hope she's found soon. Heart really goes out to her and the family

There is news on the DID FB page. Gardai rushing to Ikea. It is not good news. :-(

Just read that 2 men found her remains behind ikea, her dog by her side. if this is true, may she rest in peace.

Ah god, that's terrible if its true. Poor lady, and her poor family.

Unconfirmed reports that the dog, Casper, is there too.

He stayed by her side. So very sad. RIP Peggy.

All the volunteers did Dublin proud. It was heartwarming to see.
Not the out come any of us wanted but we put in a huge amount of hours and her family hopefully will find some comfort in this.
D.I.D. were outstanding. Thank u
