From the article one would wonder whether he is simply lost or if he has met with foul play and someone else has his vehicle and credit card. I hope one of those locations has a camera to see who used the card.

I just pray that he is found safe. I've got elderly parents and this is always a concern to me. I hope there's a large support team who are looking for him right now.

How sad. I really hate to hear things to do with older people missing. I just can't stand the thought of someone harming an elderly person. They are just so vulnerable in so many ways. I hope he is just lost and is found soon.

I read that he was found safe after wandering into someones house. The article said that he had slept in his car for a couple nights and that he was taken to the local hospital in Venice or the surrounding area for observation. It is funny though I can't find any articles about it now. Maybe the name is spelled wrong or something.

Oh good! I was just thinking about him and so glad he's ok.

Thank heavens he was in a warm climate. Everyone from us and north was in the grips of a severe deep freeze and he could have easily died in his car with the temps we had!!

Thank heaven he is okay. It is definitely time to take his keys and disable and/or sell his car. So sad when something like this happens, but so good that he was found safe. This could have had a very different ending, as we have seen in other cases.

I'm so glad. I wonder if he had a stroke or something? It sounds like he just didn't even know where he was at all.
