Paula Diaz Martinez and her sister say the search for their missing mother, Pauline Diaz, has taken a tremendous emotional toll on them. It’s also taken a financial toll.

Pauline Diaz was last seen more than a decade ago leaving work at the H-E-B off SE Military Drive.

Juanita Diaz carries a missing person's magnet in the back of her truck with her mother's picture on it, hoping it will trigger tips to help find her whereabouts. This weekend, she said a woman was seen ripping the magnet off her truck. Diaz doesn't think it's a threat.

The family of Pauline Diaz, who disappeared after her shift at an H-E-B on the South Side near I-37 and Southeast Military Drive, is still trying to bring awareness to her case 12 years after her disappearance.

For over a decade, Pauline Diaz's family has been searching relentlessly for her. She seemingly vanished without a trace in 2010, at age 63.

The family of Pauline Diaz is making sure to not forget what would be her 75th birthday on Saturday.

SAN ANTONIO – The Bexar County Sheriff’s Office spent two hours searching and digging for signs of a woman missing since December 2010. But Salazar said on Thursday that after two hours of work, no evidence was found to help investigators. “Nothing was found today (but) it shows the lengths that law enforcement will go through to make sure on any cold case that we try to find closure,” Salazar said. Salazar said he didn’t know why the man waited this long to report his tip. AdSalazar urged anyone with information about the cold case to call 210-335-6000.

SAN ANTONIO – The family of Pauline Diaz is remembering their beloved mother 10 years after her mysterious disappearance. Pauline was last seen leaving her job at the H-E-B on Southeast Military and Goliad on December 7, 2010, and was in the process of a divorce when she disappeared. Though her then-husband was named a person of interest in the case, both the Wilson County Sheriff’s Office and the Bexar County Sheriff’s Office have said they are unsure of what happened to Pauline. Pauline’s daughter, Juanita Diaz, says she will continue to search for answers in her mother’s disappearance.
