At a gas station in Cross Plains, Texas, his credit card was tracked the following day on Sunday.
More than 24 hours have passed since this credit card activity and there has been no further sighting or contact with Luce. His family have expressed their frustration and heartache, especially since they were in close proximity but couldn’t reach him in time.
Luce not only suffers from beginning stages of dementia, but also a heart ailment requiring medication which he is running low on. His family have also noted his dyslexia which makes him struggle with understanding road signs and directions, further exacerbating their anxiety.
His family advices that if you come across Luce, some methods that may get his attention include addressing him by his name or ‘Papa’, and he might also react favorably to the suggestion of going fishing.
Luce is described as a man with brown hair and brown eyes, measuring 5′8 ″ tall, weighing around 230 lbs. He has a noticeable limp in his right leg’s walk, and was last seen wearing a black t-shirt with a flag design and dark jogging pants.
