Twenty-three-year-old Larry Curtis Avant was last seen in Indianapolis, Indiana, on March 19, 2004. His disappearance was later entered into the National Missing and Unidentified Persons System as case MP132751, listing Indianapolis as the location of last contact on that date. Publicly available records in NamUs do not provide circumstance details about where he was headed, who last saw him, or the conditions surrounding his disappearance, and no contemporaneous news reports outlining
investigative leads are readily accessible.
A decade later, the case took a tragic turn. An obituary published by the Indianapolis Star through Legacy.com records that Larry Curtis Avant died in Indianapolis on July 12, 2014. The notice specifies that services were held on July 19, 2014, at Williams and Bluitt Funeral Home with visitation beginning at 9 a.m., and burial at New Crown Cemetery. The obituary does not disclose a cause of death or describe the circumstances under which he was found.
Taken together, the official missing-person listing and the obituary chronicle a decade-long gap between Avant’s disappearance in March 2004 and confirmation of his death in July 2014. Beyond the dates, locations, and funeral arrangements, there is no publicly posted account in these sources explaining what happened during the intervening years or how the case was resolved, leaving the public record sparse on investigative details.Last Seen: Mar 19, 2004
