On September 3, 2018, 62-year-old Richard Lea wandered away from his family at the Grayson Lake marina playground in Kentucky and was never seen again. Living with early-onset frontal lobe dementia and mostly non-verbal, he left the group heading toward the restroom and vanished within minutes while his wife and son were nearby.

A large, immediate search involved family members, Department of Natural Resources officers, the Carter County Sheriff’s Office, Kentucky State Police, an Emergency Response Team, K-9 units, dive and sonar teams, helicopters, UTVs, horseback teams, volunteers and organizations such as Texas EquuSearch. Local hospitals and shelters were checked and flyers circulated, but no clues to his whereabouts were found.

Richard is described as a white male, 5 feet 6 inches and about 140 pounds, with graying hair, a close-cut white beard and mustache, hazel eyes and a reddish birthmark on his upper right cheek. He was wearing a tan t-shirt, navy blue drawstring sweatshorts, tan slip-on sneakers with white socks and a camouflage baseball cap with a yellow P when he disappeared.

If anyone was at Grayson Lake on September 3, 2018, or remembers seeing Richard, can you share what you saw or any information that might help the family?
