History
Missouri was a hunter and psychic who practiced in Lawrence, Kansas. When he was young, Missouri would go on hunts and her son, James Turner, would worry about her safety. Missouri's relationship with her son would eventually become strained, leading to an estrangement between the two after Missouri did not predict the death of James' wife. John Winchester first met Missouri on December 17, 1983 (See John's Journal). Twenty-two years later when Dean and Sam Winchester are in Lawrence they are led to Missouri by the first line of the first page in John's Journal, "I went to Missouri and found the truth."
Sometime after her meeting Sam and Dean, Missouri stepped away from the hunting life, moving to Omaha, Nebraska at some point.

7.07 The Mentalists
In Lily Dale, a town full of psychics, some real, some fake, Dean mentions Missouri, saying, "When was the last time we saw a real psychic? Pamela? Missouri?"
13.03 Patience
Learning that her protege Dede has been murdered by something supernatural, Missouri places a call to Sam Winchester asking for his help. Sam, not wanting to leave Jack alone, passes the case on to Jody Mills, which angers Dean, who leaves for Omaha, Nebraska, to help Missouri. Missouri meets with Jody and has a happy reunion with Dean and notices his grief and gives her condolences to him.
Jody reveals that Dede's brains were removed from a small puncture wound in her neck. Dean and Missouri quickly surmise they are dealing with a wraith, and when Missouri begins reading the room's energy, she confirms their hypothesis, telling Dean and Jody that the wraith is hunting psychics. Missouri sees a vision of her estranged son James Turner's death, and urges Dean and Jody to go to Buckhead, Georgia, to protect him and her granddaughter Patience, who is also psychic.
Later that night, as Missouri is waiting in Dede's shop, the wraith arrives. Undeterred, Missouri tells the wraith that she will not scream, as she has seen the possible outcomes, all of which end with her death. Accepting her fate, she defiantly tells the wraith that her death will ensure that he is stopped. Dean and Jody later see a news report on her death at a gas station.
Patience experiences a vision of her grandmother warning her about the wraith, which she passes off as a nightmare until she discovers through her dad that she's a psychic. She later has a flashback to the last time she saw Missouri, at her mom's funeral where Missouri gave her a brooch with one of her Lithomantic gems and promised that she would always do her best to protect her, no matter where she was. After Patience is kidnapped by the wraith, James uses his Lithomantic gems to locate her and the wraith using a locating spell that Moseley taught him when he was a kid. When they arrive to save her, Patience uses her gift to protect Dean, Jody, and James after she has a vision that they were going to be killed by the wraith. Dean is able to kill it and avenge Missouri's death. When Dean returns to the Bunker, Sam tells him that Jody had called to inform him about Missouri's death.
