Tina and her husband Joe own a number of Corvettes, but always bring their yellow BB '69 convertible to the St. Jude caravan for the kids to see and sit in.

Please keep your eyes open for Tina and/or her truck. And keep Tina and her family in your prayers.

A link to this thread was posted on the SVTOA-Memphis forum, a local area Mustang/Ford club.

This morning, while running errands, I passed what looked like a crime scene investigation and there were several news station trucks broadcasting live.

It appears the woman's truck has been located, found locked and abandoned in a quiet residential area of Memphis.

Here's a link for those interested:

Joe and Tina are two of the kindest people i know and consider true friends without any strings. I am so worried and pissed off at the Memphis area I can't see straight. I would do anything in my power to help either one of them, as I'm sure many of you would. We need to be there for them.

Bartlett police find body in vehicle owned by missing woman
Originally published 11:17 a.m., October 27, 2008
Updated 12:53 p.m., October 27, 2008

Bartlett police found a body today in the back seat of a truck that belonged to a missing Memphis woman.

The 2005 Chevrolet Avalanche was found this morning on Brannick, a dead-end street on the southern edge of Bartlett at the Memphis border.

The missing woman, Tina Caronna, 44, was last seen driving the truck in the 800 block of Eatonwick Fairway in Cordova on Saturday.

No further details about the body were available early this afternoon.

The truck was being processed at Bartlett police headquarters, according to Asst. Chief Glen Williamson.

Bartlett police got calls about 8 a.m. today that the vehicle was parked on Brannick.

Police got conflicting accounts from neighbors about how long the truck had been there, but at least one resident was sure of when he’d seen it.

“It was there Saturday,” said Chuck Smith of 2290 Brannick. “We didn’t call. We didn’t think anything about it. Nobody paid much attention.”
