Roy Maynard, 55, disappeared from Pleasant Garden, North Carolina, in the spring of 2004. A friend last saw him on May 10, 2004; later that day he was seen sitting on the friend’s porch on Frazier Road near Groometown Road and is believed to have walked away from the residence. He owned a tree-cutting business and family reported changes in his behavior before he vanished — he had stopped eating, was sleeping in his truck, and was coping with the recent death of his second wife, relationship problems, and financial trouble. Several days passed before he was reported missing.

Maynard was a Native American man and member of the Lumbee tribe, described as 5 feet 10 inches, about 210 pounds, with graying hair, brown eyes and a tattoo of his first name Roy on his lower right arm. He was last thought to be wearing blue jeans, a t-shirt, a baseball cap and black shoes. The Guilford County Sheriff’s Office is investigating, and there has been no confirmed contact or verified sighting since May 2004.

Did anyone in the Pleasant Garden or Groometown Road area see Roy around May 10, 2004, or have information that could help explain what happened after he left that porch?
