An air of concern settled over Sachse, Texas, when 70-year-old Richard Pivonka went missing. On the morning of Friday, May 23, 2025, at approximately 10:00 AM, Mr. Pivonka drove away from his home in his blue 2015 Chevrolet Silverado, which had a Texas license plate of JDC0286. Worryingly, he left without his wallet or his phone. Described as a white male with white hair and blue eyes, his sudden departure prompted immediate concern from his family and law enforcement. He was believed to be wearing either a long-sleeved red shirt and shorts or a grey shirt with brown pants and dark-colored Crocs, along with gold-framed glasses. The hours that followed his departure were filled with uncertainty. A significant development occurred later that same day when a traffic camera captured an image of Mr. Pivonka's Chevrolet Silverado in Hugo, Oklahoma, at around 4:37 PM. This sighting placed him hundreds of miles from his home, deepening the mystery surrounding his disappearance. In response to the growing concerns for his well-being, the Texas Department of Public Safety issued a Silver Alert. This alert highlighted that Mr. Pivonka was diagnosed with a cognitive impairment, and authorities believed his disappearance posed a credible threat to his own health and safety. The Sachse Police Department urged the public to be vigilant and report any information regarding his whereabouts. Tragically, the search for Richard Pivonka came to a sorrowful end. It was later confirmed that he had been located and was deceased. The specific details surrounding the date, location, and circumstances of his passing have not been widely publicized. The case, which began with a local man leaving his home for a drive, transitioned into a multi-state alert fueled by the hope of a safe return. The resolution, however, brought a heartbreaking conclusion to the search, leaving behind questions and the profound loss of a community member.
