Circumstances of Disappearance:
Raymond was last seen in the vicinity of South Street and Stanley Street in New Britain, Connecticut on July 28, 1998. He had left his parents' home and planned to sleep out on South Street. He had been angry because he was turned down for an apartment he applied for in the city, but he was not despondent or suicidal. His sleeping bag and other belongings were discovered at the site where he planned to sleep, but he has never been heard from again.

Raymond suffers from mental illness, and had lived with his parents until earlier in 1998, when they moved to a one-bedroom apartment on Chestnut Street. After that, he stayed at the Salvation Army shelter and the Friendship Center shelter before he began sleeping off of South Street, about three months before his disappearance. He continued to have breakfast and weekend meals with his parents and visit them each evening, and he would get other meals at the Friendship Center.

Few details are available regarding Raymond's disappearance. His case is unsolved and his whereabouts remain unknown.

updated story Sept 2, 2021

<<A mysterious, handwritten note stuck in a relative’s car in the city three months ago is giving Stephen Raymond’s family hope that the missing 47-year- old homeless man is still alive.

The unsigned note, found under a windshield wiper of a car owned by Raymond’s maternal aunt, said Raymond was doing fine. There was no mention of where he was or why he dropped out of sight on July 28.

“The handwriting didn’t look at all like Stephen’s, but whoever wrote it was telling us that he’s OK,” Raymond’s sister, Kathleen Gendrolas, said Friday. “We believe it’s proof he’s alive.”>>
