Family Searching For Missing Beachwood Woman

BEACHWOOD, NJ — A Beachwood woman and mother of three who was reported missing on Tuesday has been found safe, her family said Thursday.

Toni Giordano, 31, had not contacted family since Friday, Aug. 2, and her sister, Gina, sought help from the public in trying to find her.

"We checked hospitals, bus station, Wawas, 7-11s," Gina Giordano wrote in a post on Facebook Wednesday afternoon. Gina said the family tried to reach her by text messages and phone calls numerous times with no response.

As of Wednesday, Toni's phone was dead and going straight to voicemail, Gina wrote.

"It's not like her not to contact any family or not be active on Facebook/Snapchat etc," Gina wrote.

Beachwood police were notified and a missing person's report filed, Gina said. On Thursday, Toms River police contactedGina and said Toni had been located and was safe. No additional details were available.

Toni's Facebook profile notes she has three children — "My kids are my world," she writes — but her children were not with her when she went missing and are safe, Gina said.

If you have seen Toni, call Beachwood police at 732-341-1242.

"PLEASE if anyone knows anything on where she is please just tell me," Gina wrote. "Tell her to call me....something, literally sick to my stomach knowing she hasn't contacted any of her friends or family....its just so not like her."

This article has been updated to reflect that Toni Giordano was located safe as of Aug. 8, 2019.
