Loy Cosby, an 87-year-old man from Sweetwater, Texas, was last seen on June 2, 1998. On that morning, his wife discovered he had left their lakeside cabin while she was asleep. The front door was left open, and Loy, who suffered from dementia and short-term memory loss, was seen walking along a road near Interstate 20, north of the lake dam. He has not been heard from since.
Despite extensive searches, including volunteers and law enforcement combing the area, no clues about his whereabouts were uncovered.
Cosby, a former shipyard worker, had spoken of traveling to California, leading investigators to consider that he may have received a ride from a passing motorist. However, no further evidence supported this theory, and his case remains unsolved. Cosby suffered from gout, walked with a slight limp, and was wearing a light-colored button-down shirt and khaki pants at the time of his disappearance. Over the years, his family continued to search for answers, but all leads have run cold.Last Seen: Jun 2, 1998
