Help! Please Bring Me Home, New Campaign Launches in Search for Nursing Student Holly Bobo

Help! Please Bring Me Home, New Campaign Launches in Search for Nursing Student Holly Bobo


PARSONS, TN – Wednesday, July 13, 2011, marks three months since West Tennessee nursing student, Holly Bobo, was seen being led away from her family’s home in Darden. Friends and family are expanding their search, taking the hunt for Holly across the nation.


A new campaign, launched this week, will help them do just that. Decals are being placed on the back of trucks that travel around the country. The stickers have a new picture of Holly and read “Help! Please bring me home!”

The first trucking company to place the decals on their trailers is C&P Leasing, which is located in Parsons. A friend of Holly’s family came up with the idea. Others are paying for the signs to be donated to more trucking companies.
“I will be taking them myself,” says family friend D-Lynn Burton, ”and placing them to make sure they are going on big trucks that actually travel as far as I can get someone to travel.”
“That is our main objective,” says Kyla Whitsitt, ”to get her face out there, her story out there, her info out there so people might see her and recognize her.”

Holly Bobo, 20-year-old nursing student,TN Missing


Holly Bobo, 20-year-old nursing student,TN

Hundreds of Tennessee residents are frantically searching for a 20-year-old nursing student last seen being dragged out of her home by a man wearing camouflage.
Holly Bobo's 25-year-old brother told cops he saw a man pulling his sister across the carport outside their Decatur County home - and toward a wooded area Wednesday morning.
Bobo's brother was inside the house, watching the horror unfold from a window, authorities said.
Authorities fear Bobo is a victim of a home invasion and abduction.
About 250 volunteers and sheriff deputies, assisted by police dogs and helicopters, canvassed the rural community, but turned up no sign of Bobo.
The hunt restarted early Thursday morning.
The apparent kidnapping stunned the close-knit community of Parsons, a sleepy 2,500-person town about 100 miles northeast of Memphis.
Bobo, a 5-foot-3, 110-pound beauty with blonde hair, was last seen wearing a pink shirt and light blue jeans.
She was studying to be a licensed practical nurse through the Tennessee Technology Center, a school spokesman said.
Family friend David Ivey said Bobo, who regularly sang solos at the Corinth Baptist Church, has an "angelic voice" and loved to show it off in talent contests at school.
Bobo's pastor, Don Franks, described her as "a fine young Christian girl."
