Sad Ending for a Cooma Family
G'day All, Cast your minds back to Sunday 23/3/08 (Easter Sunday Cooma Showground) when it was broadcast over the PA system to keep an eye out for an elderly gent suffering from Dementia had supposedly wandered away from his home. At that time he had been missing since the day before, anyway to cut a very long story short he was found deceased in his back yard, he did a bit of gardening and had an overgrown veggie patch on the property, he was found there last Tuesday, 8/4/08. I read this in yesterdays NMH (Newcastle Morning Herald) poor old chap,, Dennis

Yes, I remember the broadcast. Surely he was found in the meantime?

Remember seeing the flyers around and the announcement... love to know how they found him a few weeks later in his own backyard though... think there cops need a bit more training.

Very sad but, maybe he was doing what he loved when he passed, tinkering in the garden and i would imagine he would have probably been there all the time, they just didn't think to look there. Baz.

Possibly they found him on the easter weekend and he went missing again....
I cant believe that he was missing for 2 weeks and the police did not find him on his own property..... Ohh hang on its NSW..... the Lazy State.....

According to local cooma papers, the old gent was found about 5 kms from his house in a overgrown garden, not his own garden. Still sad anyway.
