Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP153812)
Jeremias Cecil Gomez, a 65-year-old man from North Miami Beach, Florida, was reported missing after last being in contact on December 20, 2025. Public missing-person information listed him under NamUs case MP153812 and identified North Miami Beach as the place connected to his disappearance, placing his case within the broader network of law-enforcement and public missing-person records used to help locate adults whose whereabouts are unknown.
The available public information about the missing-person phase of the case is limited, but it establishes the essential facts that Jeremias was an older adult, male, and last known to be in North Miami Beach in late December 2025.
The circumstances surrounding why Jeremias was missing, where he may have gone after he was last seen, and what search steps were taken were not described in detail in the online records located. No publicly available law-enforcement narrative was found giving a timeline of his final known movements, the clothing he may have been wearing, whether he left on foot or by vehicle, or whether there were specific medical or safety concerns announced at the time. In cases like this, the lack of public detail can leave family, friends, and the surrounding community with very little information beyond the basic identifying facts, making the missing-person notice itself especially important as a way to keep attention on the person rather than allowing the case to disappear from public view.
The investigating agency has reported that Jeremias Gomez was found alive, and his missing-person case is no longer active. The exact date and circumstances of when he was located were not found in the available online information, so those details remain unclear from public records. Separately, a public obituary later identified Jeremias Cecil Gomez, also known affectionately as “Jerry,” as a Miami artist who passed away on January 25, 2026, at age 65, after severe seizures led to a coma from which he did not recover. The obituary described him as a profoundly creative person who lived with mental illness and great hardship, but whose artwork remained an enduring part of his life and legacy.
Taken as a whole, the public record shows a brief missing-person case involving 65-year-old Jeremias Gomez of North Miami Beach, followed by confirmation that he was found alive and that the missing-person matter was resolved. The details of his disappearance and recovery were not publicly documented in the sources located, leaving the case with only a narrow factual timeline: he was last known to be in contact on December 20, 2025, in North Miami Beach; he was later located alive; and public memorial information later remembered him not only by the circumstances of the missing-person report, but as Jeremias Cecil Gomez, a loved and gifted artist whose life was marked by struggle, resilience, and creativity.Last Seen: Dec 20, 2025
