It's been a long day. I'm off to bed so this will be the last repost for the night. Thanks for all of your support ladies. 

I am sorry if this will get annoying for some of you. So many people just pop on for a minute or 2 and could see this. I will probably repost this a couple of times today. Sorry everyone. The post is on page 2 so here it is again.

My Great Uncle has been missing for 2 days. I thought this would be a good way to get the word out. We have a missing persons report filed in Ohio. The highway patrol has a BOLO alert out all the way from Ohio to Florida.

The problem is that he may be confused. He is a 78 year old white man. About 5'10'' 180 lbs. Driving a White 2004 Ford Ranger. He has been showing some signs of confusion. He lives in Florida but was visiting relatives in Ohio. He left Ohio sunday morning 10/5 and was making a stop in Chatanooga, Tn. to visit my cousin (Around Hwy 153). He should have been at my cousins by 5pm on 10/5. No one has seen or heard from him in 2 days. IF he would have continued on to Florida, he would have been home by yesterday evening.

He cannot read or write. Unfortunately has trouble using a phone. He has been making this trip from Florida to Ohio and back for 13 years with no problems.

I have been on the phone with Hospitals, Hotels and even Crackle Barrels. My Uncle thought he was supposed to meet my cousin at a Crackle Barrel. Someone I spoke to took some information and told me he would watch his local news just in case there is an elderly man in his area lost and confused.

So, that's why I had the idea to post here. I know there are nesties all over the place. Quite honestly, He could have taken a wrong exit and be lost somewhere in Texas. If he's out west, the BOLO alert would be useless.

Could you please keep an eye out on your local news? Maybe C&P this to your local boards? The most recent picture I have of him is in my siggie.

BTW, he lives with me so I know he didn't make it home. Also, he doesn't know how to use a credit card, so we have no way of tracking him that way.

I wish I could give my number out, but I know this will attract some freaks. So, my email address is aandgande@hotmail.com if anyone knows, sees or hears anything.

TIA!

I will definitely have your family in my prayers that he is found safe soon. I will definitely watch for anything in the news as well.

 

Good luck. I am sure this is a very difficult time for you.

I'll keep him in my thoughts and prayers and hope for him to return home soon.  What part of FL are you in?  I'm in the NE FL and will keep my eyes out for the vehicle or him while I'm out and about.

OMG, how scary.  I will definitely be praying for him and you.  I hope he is found soon!
