The update in the first post here says “UPDATE: June 21, 2024; at 2:45 pm: The missing individual has been located. Our deepest condolences go out to the family.”

So, apparently he was located deceased, since they gave condolences.

The obituary mentions that he "passed away peacefully near the Blue Ridge Parkway."

Agree with your earlier statement about the unusual wording, I was just pointing out the obituary mentioned his peaceful passing away.

It seems there may have been cause for concern from the beginning, JMO. LE didn't give the usual MP details at the outset and was incredibly tactful in their announcement of his death.
