According to detectives, Talmage was last spotted around 3 p.m. on March 7 near the 8000 block of Liberty Way. He is described as being 5 feet 10 inches tall, weighing approximately 235 pounds, with grey hair and blue eyes. At the time of his disappearance, he was wearing a tan baseball hat, a light blue shirt, and blue jeans.

Family members have expressed concern for Talmage’s well-being, as he suffers from Alzheimer’s disease. His condition may cause him to become disoriented or confused, making it difficult for him to find his way home. Authorities are asking residents in the area to check their properties, security cameras, and be vigilant in case they spot him.
