Dowling left a note at her home sometime between 8 and 11 a.m. saying she was going for walk, but has not been seen since then. Dowling is diabetic and could become disoriented if she is unable to take her medicine, Mark Latti, spokesman for the IFW, said in a news release.
Dowling is known to take frequent walks on the roads near her home, Latti said. She is 5 feet, 6 inches tall, weighs about 200 pounds and has gray hair. She is likely to be wearing jeans, gray/blue sneakers and glasses.
