Missing Person alert--
Update January 15, 2025
The body of Mr. Estridge was discovered just before 5:00 p. m. Tuesday, January 14, 2025. A resident of the area on his way home from work noticed the body in an elevated wooded area just off Cannery Road in the Buford Community.

The body was located a short distance from Mr. Estridge’s home, where he was last seen. At this time there is no indication of foul play, but the cause and manner of the death are pending the autopsy results and continuing investigation by the coroner’s office and the sheriff’s office.

“We are disappointed in the outcome of this search,” said Sheriff Barry Faile. “Our thoughts and prayers are with Mr. Estridge’s family and friends. Although this didn’t end like we all hoped it would, at least the family will not have to live with the uncertainty of where Mr. Estridge is.
