A Swansea woman and her son who were reported missing after they left a Thanksgiving celebration and never made it home have been found, authorities said today.

Joana Gracia, 78, and her son, Stephen Gracia, 51, left East Providence, R.I., at 4:45 p.m. Thursday and were headed back to their home in Swansea. Police put out a missing-person report and asked for the public's help in locating them.

They were found this morning in Westerly, R.I., according to police. A motorist who spotted their brown 2003 Toyota Camry reported the sighting to Westerly Police.

Both are fine, and police are investigating why they didn’t make it home.
