Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP114079) and 2 other sources
In the fall of 2021, a 58-year-old man named Jeffrey R. Cobb vanished from the familiar surroundings of his life in Conway, South Carolina. His last confirmed contact occurred on October 10, 2021. On that day, he had an interaction with law enforcement in an unincorporated area of Conway, a place he was known to frequent. After this encounter, Jeffrey was not seen or heard from again, leaving his loved ones to wonder what could have happened to him in the coastal region of Horry County.

Jeffrey is a white male with a slender build, standing somewhere between six feet one inch and six feet five inches tall, and weighing between 110 and 120 pounds. His appearance was marked by his long, gray or partially gray hair, and a beard. He has brown eyes. A notable and deeply personal feature is a tattoo on his upper left arm that depicts a cross surrounded by four guardian angels, a permanent piece of art that holds meaning known to him and those close to him. At the time of his disappearance, no specific clothing description was available to the public.

The circumstances surrounding Jeffrey Cobb's case remain uncertain. The official report with the Myrtle Beach Police Department was not filed until December 5, 2023, more than two years after his last known contact. Details about what led to his disappearance are scarce. He was known to frequent the Conway area, but where he might have gone after his last confirmed sighting is unknown. The lack of information has created a painful void for those who care for him. The overview of the case is one of quiet disappearance, a man who was present one day and gone the next, with the official investigation beginning long after the trail had grown cold.
