Remembering Jack Lee Howe Home

Remembering Jack Lee Howe Home by ladyhawker.
This poster is an update. I added that he was wearing a blue ball cap, and at the suggestion of the sheriff's office, added the Cowley County Sheriff's Office phone number.

My Grandpa, Jack Lee Howe, disappeared from Winfield KS on Aug 1 2008. He was last seen at a Dillon's grocery store in Winfield, KS at around 9:20pm.

His truck was found 1/4 south of the Kansas/Oklahoma border on US Highway 81, between Caldwell, KS and Medford, OK.

This photo was sent to me by a good Samaritan that is helping us search for Grandpa.

For more information about his disappearance, search and recovery, see my blog: www.scotthawker.com/blog/ladyhawker?tq=Jack%20Lee%20Howe

Update: He was found on August 28, 2008. It appears he passed away from over exertion and exposure within the first day after he disappeared. Thank you all for your kind words and prayers.

I've tweeted and asked others to help as well, and also brightkited it. brightkite is cool in that it allows you to check into an area and broadcast, and for others from that area to see what you have broadcast.

Thanks everyone. Every time someone pics this up and posts it in another location it increases the chances that the right person will run across it. Your kindness and efforts are VERY much appreciate.
