‘We want her back’: $200,000 reward offered for Colorado woman who disappeared on bike ride

Suzanne Morphew

The husband of a missing Colorado woman announced he was offering $200,000 for information that leads to her return.

Barry Murphew announced the reward in a Facebook group dedicated to finding his wife, Suzanne Morphew. A poster states the reward will be given “no questions asked” if she returns safely.

Suzanne Morphew, 49, went missing on Sunday from a road west of Maysville, Colo., near Salida while on a bike ride, according to the Chafee County Sheriff’s Office.

A search for Morphew began after she did not return home from her ride. So far, more than 100 search personnel from several agencies have participated in the search. The search team has deployed multiple drones, helicopters and dogs in the search process.

A GoFundMe has also been set up to raise money for the search and rescue operation.

“Everyone involved in this search, we just want her back so bad,” Trevor Noel, Suzanne’s nephew who set up the GoFundMe, told NBC News. “We want her back because she is just such a bright light in all of our lives.”

“We want to leave our options open and we want to make sure that we cover every hill… and know that everyone out here is doing everything they possibly can to find her," Noel told CBS 4 Denver.

“And if there’s any chance that she could hear this maybe, I want to her know that the family wants her back and we love her we’re out there working for her.”
