Phillip B. Sellew, 44, vanished from Sanford, Florida on July 6, 1992. He lived at The Ranch, a group home on Celery Avenue, where he was receiving care after brain damage from a fall four years earlier and required daily medication. That morning he told staff he was going to buy toenail clippers and never returned.

In the days after his disappearance there were reported sightings near the Sanford Marina and ABC Liquors on Highway 17-92. Searches of the surrounding area, including the St. John’s River and Lake Monroe, turned up nothing. A search dog tracked Sellew’s scent to a nearby bus stop and then lost it. He had left behind his glasses and essential medication, and family had been in Rhode Island the day before, prompting speculation he might have tried to travel there.

Anyone who knew Phillip, saw him around Sanford in early July 1992, or has information about those reported sightings is asked to come forward.
