Dennis Day (Mouseketeer) 1942-2018

Day was reportedly last seen in July 2018 after Caswell, who has dementia, was admitted to the hospital with a broken leg. Day reportedly left on foot, telling a third housemate, a live-in handyman, that he was going to visit friends,but his cat and dog were left behind, and the dog was found roaming by neighbors. One neighbor had a letter written by Day mentioning being assaulted by the handyman,[11] who told police that Day was also exhibiting signs of mental problems. After Caswell reported Day missing, his car was found in the possession of people approximately 200 miles (320 km) away who said that they had permission to take it, according to the police possibly in exchange for helping the handyman. Friends began asking for help locating him starting in November that year, and in February 2019, after his family learned of his disappearance, his case was featured on an episode of Dateline NBC.

Police had searched Day's residence and elsewhere, but in early April 2019 human remains were discovered on the property. On June 6, 2019, it was announced that the remains were confirmed as those of Day, though a cause of death was not announced.

How sad is that?!?!? I hope his family gets some answers soon so they can have some sort of peace.
