Lily M. Rowland, who suffered from Alzheimer’s disease, had wandered away from her home on Bishop Road home and was struck by a vehicle on northbound Interstate 5 near the Labree Road interchange.
It happened just before 10 p.m. on a Saturday night.
The Washington State Patrol says the van will likely be missing its right-side mirror and its front passenger side amber-colored marking light will be broken or missing.
Pieces of the van found at the scene belong to a 1996 to 2002 full sized Chevrolet Express or GMC Savana van, according to the state patrol.
Anyone with information about what happened is asked to call detective Sgt. Rob Brusseau at 360-449-7941.
