Jeffery David Daymude, 23, was last seen on October 19, 1978, leaving his home in West Melbourne, Florida, and driving toward Minton Park in Satellite Beach. He was in a dark blue 1964 Chevrolet and was accompanied by his dog. Three days later the dog was found wandering in northwest Palm Bay, but there was no sign of Jeffery or the vehicle.

Daymude was described as 6 feet 2 inches, 160 pounds, with brown hair and blue eyes. Foul play is strongly suspected and investigators have worked the case for decades, but the car has never been recovered and no substantial leads have emerged. The Brevard County Sheriff’s Office continues to seek information that might bring answers to his family.

If anyone knew Jeffery, saw that 1964 Chevrolet, or has information about his movements around October 19, 1978, please contact the Sheriff’s Office.
