Willie Rudalph Conyers was 84 when he went missing from his home in Raleigh in the autumn of 1995. He was last seen on the morning of October 16 walking near Weston and Carlisle Streets; at the time he lived with his son in the 800 block of Weston Street. He was described as a Black male, bald, with brown eyes, about 5 feet 6 inches and 170–180 pounds. He wore a dark brown pullover shirt with green and red horizontal stripes, tan pants with the cuffs rolled up, and either white or black shoes.

Mr. Conyers was in the early stages of Alzheimer’s disease and had a history of wandering and becoming disoriented, which made his disappearance especially worrying to his family. An extensive search produced no clues, and the Raleigh Police Department has continued to keep the case file open. Very few public details beyond these facts are available.

If anyone in Raleigh remembered seeing Mr. Conyers that October morning or has information that could help, please contact the Raleigh Police Department.
