Thomas E. Kemna, 44, went missing from Grand Island, New York, on January 13, 2019. That day he sent distressing text messages to his wife that suggested he intended to harm himself. His vehicle was later found abandoned at the top of the South Grand Island Bridge, a location he had mentioned in past threats of self-harm.

A multi-agency search of the Niagara River and shorelines, including marine and aviation units, turned up no sign of him. The New York State Police from the Clarence barracks led the investigation, and investigators concentrated on the possibility that he jumped from the bridge based on the car’s location and his final messages. The lack of physical evidence has left the family without closure.

If anyone saw Thomas on January 13, 2019, or has information about his movements that day, please come forward.
