The body of a local man who was reported missing last August was found Tuesday between Windsor Woods Village and the U.S.-131 expressway.
Officers from the Wayland Police Department were summoned to site, where they found remains that appeared to have been present for several months. The area where the body was discovered outdoors was near the residence of Windsor Woods resident Ronald Jenson, 63, who was reported missing Aug. 4.
It was reported last August that Jenson walked away from his home Thursday, Aug. 4, and despite efforts to locate him, his remains weren’t found until Tuesday.
This is disheartening obviously. Causes one to wonder, to what level and how broad of a search was performed?
It is my understanding, that an extensive search party was formed, resulting in the successful location of the missing motorcyclist several months ago.
On Christmas Eve a couple of years back, a group of neighbors were ready and willing to search for a missing child who was found to have actually been with a friends family. It was said that many resources were at the ready to aid in location, including thermal vision equipment and a state police rotorcraft.
If a search was even performed, how extensive was it? These questions, observations, and assumptions could cause one to wonder what value we actually place on our seniors. As far as their perceived value, dignity, and the general attitude of the rest of our society/community. Their contributions, regardless of the individual are obviously paramount.
Perhaps I missed the details regarding any search for this gentleman, honestly hope that is the case.
