What happened to Robyn Renee Bodine and Tracey Shoe?
Bodine and Shoe, both from Dayton suburb Brookville, Ohio, flew out of Cincinnati to Phoenix on March 25.

"The phone goes straight to voicemail," Lightcap explained. "It does on both ends, it does for both phones... we’re not sure if a battery has gone dead or what has happened. But they are not responding, not answering on social media."
'Miserable' Moberly explained her frustration of being unable to do anything and every moment not knowing where her mother was, reported The Sun. She previously said, "Just want my mom home I want Tracie home for her kids," she said. "It sucks … you feel useless because there’s nothing I can do.”

Families plea to find the missing women
Meanwhile, Moberly also highlighted that the details Bodine gave her about their trip to New Mexico were vague. The mother told the daughter she heard about the Riverbend Hot Springs in the state and wanted to go there with Shoe for a birthday trip. Moberly said she was surprised by the details of the trip as she described her mother as a "homebody" despite being outgoing. Considering Bodine and Shoe had been close friends for several years, the two allegedly left for their small trip. Moreover, after waiting for stressing 24-hour the daughter filed a missing persons report with her stepfather.
Although the women have now been found safe, Bodine's daughter previously wrote in the message, "Police everywhere have been contacted, airports, records searched. Nothing is giving us any help." She further added, "We have exhausted all efforts and I'm just hoping to post this and maybe it reaches somewhere beneficial," Bodine's daughter shared. "Please, please, please keep my family in your prayers," as per People.
