In 1988, Marsha Ferber went to run an errand and never returned. Now, my mom and I are trying to work out what happened to her.
One of my mom's best friends, Marsha"Mudd" Ferber, disappeared from Morgantown, West Virginia in 1988, when I was 15 years old. One afternoon she went out to run an errand and she was never seen or heard from again.
We lived with Marsha in The Earth House in Morgantown, the communal home she had started in 1979. For most of my childhood, until the age of 11, my family lived communally with other families and adults. My sister and I shared a room with my mom and eight other adults at The Earth House. There was a jar with shared money for food in the refrigerator and everyone had a turn to cook—no meat, of course.
Marsha often made frequent trips to the city and slept on our ratty brown couch. At the time, I didn't know these trips were primarily to buy weed to sell in West Virginia. Not that it mattered. Growing up, weed was always around. My own parents were back-to-the-land hippies who had been busted for growing marijuana when I was six years old. Everyone around us smoked it, and I used to steal it from my mom when I was a teenager.
Marsha's disappearance was a big deal for my parents. As soon as my mom got the call from a friend asking if she'd seen Marsha, she headed straight down to West Virginia to help with the search. My mom talked to everyone they mutually knew and my dad traded information with the police, who thought he was Marsha's lawyer. But no one discovered anything that could help us to find out what had happened to her.
