Missing for Three Years on 1st January 2011
Can you believe that it is 3 years since we started to pray for Amy’s well-being and recovery? Three long years for her parents, family and friends. Three years without clues or answers.
Amy moved from Clarehall in Dublin to the Costa del Sol with her mother, Audrey, in 2004. Her step-father, Dave McMahon, is an estate agent in the Spanish resort. Her father (Christopher) and extended family still live in the Irish Republic. With a unified and common purpose, they all continue to search for Amy.
Amy was aged 15 when she disappeared, at approximately 10pm on 1st January 2008, after saying goodbye to her close friend Ashley Rose. On New Year’s Eve, the girls had been baby-sitting Ashley’s brother at her friend’s house in Mijas Costa (Spain) and Amy stayed over-night. She called her Mum on the morning of 1st January to wish her Happy New Year. At 10pm that evening, Amy left her friend’s home and set off to walk to her own home on the Urbanisation Riviera del Sol. This should have taken about 10 minutes as it was only a short walk away. But, she never arrived.
Hundreds of people assisted the Spanish Civil Guard and joined in the search to look for Amy but nothing was found. There is speculation about her being abducted or having run away, but there are no concrete clues about her disappearance.
All we know is that Amy Fitzpatrick is still missing.
DESCRIPTION WHEN LAST SEEN
- Thin and pale
- 1.65 metres tall (approximately 5 feet 5 inches)
- Black hair
- Wearing brown crushed velvet tracksuit bottoms and a t-shirt with the word ‘Diesel’ on the front
AREA OF SPAIN WHERE AMY WENT MISSING
Now is not the time to speculate about information posted on blogs and forums or indeed, repeated in the press. Now is the time to remember a vulnerable young person who is still missing. All members of Amy’s family need our help, support and prayers.
As a New Year begins and we all celebrate with our families, perhaps a thought can be spared for Amy’s family. A family that is still grieving for a teenager who is missing without trace. When you hug your child, remember that there are parents who can’t do that, so squeeze and hug a little but harder in thanks.
Please remember Amy Fitzpatrick

Thank you for this reminder. I do think about Amy often, but I almost can't believe that it is 3 years since she disappeared.
Without resolution the family cannot find peace.
I feel for the whole family. The 1st January will be such a hard time for them.
Amy, it' been three long years but we at the Find Madeleine forum have not forgotten about you.
May 2011 bring us some answers.
