Larry Lewis Plummer, 38, was a passenger in a bass boat on Mark Twain Lake in Ralls County, Missouri, on a summer day in July 1987 when a single-boat accident ejected him into the water. The boat’s driver began an immediate search but could not locate him in the lake’s wide waters. Law enforcement and rescuers conducted an extensive search of the area and shorelines, but Plummer’s body was not recovered.

Authorities concluded the incident was an accident and the prevailing belief is that Plummer drowned, but without recovery of his remains the family has not had final closure. He was from Liberty in Clay County. Few additional details about the accident are available.

If anyone was on Mark Twain Lake that day or has information about searches or sightings related to Larry Plummer, please share what is known.
