Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP13809) and 4 other sources
In the autumn of 2010, 56-year-old Randall Eugene Voyles, known to some as Randy, disappeared from Kansas City, Missouri. While the exact date is uncertain, he was last seen on November 7 of that year. At the time of his disappearance, Voyles was experiencing homelessness but was known to keep in consistent contact with his family. His sudden and complete silence was uncharacteristic, prompting his family to become concerned for his well-being when he could not be reached.

Randall, a white male with brown hair and hazel eyes, stood at five feet nine inches tall and weighed around 130 pounds. He had a mustache at the time he went missing. His life had left its marks on him; he had previously broken his nose and the same ankle twice. He was also missing all of his teeth. Distinctive tattoos adorned his arms: a snake on his left shoulder/arm and the phrase 'Rock & Roll' on his right shoulder. Family members also noted that he was known to carry a large number of keys. He sometimes used the aliases Richard A. Melton and Randy D. Voyles.

Despite the passage of time, the investigation into Randall Voyles's disappearance has yielded few answers, and his case remains unsolved. The circumstances surrounding his last known whereabouts in Clay County are vague, and very little information has been made public about the official investigation. His family's concern, sparked by his uncharacteristic lack of contact, has stretched into years of uncertainty. The case is a quiet but persistent reminder of a man who, despite his transient lifestyle, was a loved one who maintained connections with his family until he vanished.
