CRISFIELD, Md. - City of Crisfield officials have confirmed that a search for a woman last seen near the Somers Cove Marina has come to a tragic conclusion.
Officials said Theresa Vandenberg and her husband sailed into the marina over the weekend for the Marine Trawler Owner Association gathering. Vandenberg was last seen heading to her boat on E pier, according to the Somers Cove Marina’s Facebook page. Officials say she never arrived.
Just before 3 p.m. on Tuesday, Sept. 16, Crisfield officials said they had located Vandenberg, but said the search did not have the outcome they had hoped for.
"Our condolences to her husband Tom and their families," a social media post from Crisfield reads.
