84: MISSING: Kelly Dove

On the night of June 17, 1982, 20-year-old Kelly Bergh Dove agreed to cover an overnight shift at the Imperial gas station in Harrisonburg, Virginia. She wasn’t supposed to be working, but one of her sisters asked if she could switch—and Kelly said yes.
In the early morning hours of June 18, Kelly called 911 three times, reporting that a man had been harassing her and making obscene calls from the payphone outside. Her final words to the dispatcher were urgent and terrified: “Please hurry, he’s back.” When police arrived just one minute later, Kelly was gone.
More than four decades have passed, and Kelly has never been found. Her family is still waiting for answers—and still holding on to hope that someone, somewhere, knows what happened to Kelly Bergh Dove?

Kelly Bergh Dove was 20 years old when she went missing on June 18, 1982. She was last seen working the overnight shift at the Imperial gas station on South Main Street in Harrisonburg, Virginia.

Kelly was 5’1” tall and weighed between 100 and 120 pounds. She had brown hair, brown eyes, and wore both contact lenses and glasses. She had a partial dental plate that replaced her two front teeth, a scar on the back of her head, one along her hairline, and another on her right wrist.

At the time of her disappearance, Kelly was wearing a light-colored pinstriped sweater or top, along with tan or cream-colored slacks. She also wore her Turner Ashby High School class ring. The ring had the initials KJB engraved inside and may have had a peridot stone.

The man believed to be responsible for her disappearance was described as a thin white male, between 20 and 25 years old, with shoulder-length blond hair and a light-colored shirt. He was seen driving a silver or gray vehicle, possibly a Ford.
