Vigil marks 2 years since mysterious disappearance of Brittany Tee in Massachusetts

BROOKFIELD – The Brookfield community gathered for a candlelight vigil Friday night, marking two years since the disappearance of 35-year-old Brittany Tee on January 10, 2023.

The community packed the Brookfield Congregational Church, surrounding the family and vowing to keep looking for Brittany.

Since that January 10th day, her family has been carrying an unrelenting weight on their hearts, not knowing where she is.

“Where is she? What happened to her?”

“They say time heals all wounds, but I disagree, not when your family member disappears out of nowhere without a trace,” said Brittany’s sister Bethany Tee. “Time is making that wound bigger. There is no healing, no closure, just daily heaviness in your heart and constant thoughts of worry. Where is she? What happened to her? Is she safe? Are we doing enough?”

The 35-year-old was last seen leaving the Main Street house she shared with her boyfriend that Tuesday evening. Despite efforts to reach her, she was never seen again.

A nearby river and woods have been searched extensively with no results.

DA attends vigil  

Worcester Country District Attorney Joseph Early joined the vigil to assure the community investigators are still working the case.

“It doesn’t always happen as quickly as we would like, and that’s the tough part, that’s tough, the anxiety, the wonder,” said DA Early. “But I can tell you this, everything they do they do it better than anyone I’ve ever seen.”

Two years later, they hold onto every hope, hug, kind word and prayer, refusing to give up on finding Brittany.

“We are not giving up; we will never give up. We love and miss you Brit and we’ll bring you home,” said Bethany Tee.

The night she was last seen, Brittany wore a black winter coat, a hoodie, jeans, and work boots.

An anonymous tip line has been set up at (508) 453-7589. People are encouraged to call if they know anything or something comes to mind.
