The disappearance of Raymond Benjamin Holmes has left his loved ones and community with lingering questions since he was last seen in February 2019. At the time of his disappearance, the 65-year-old man had been discharged from a hospital on February 6th and subsequently checked into the Washington Burgess Inn in New Kent County, Virginia. It was upon checking out of this inn on February 23rd that the trail for Raymond Holmes went cold. He has not been seen or heard from since that day. Concerns for his well-being were heightened due to his need for daily medication and the possibility that he may have had an altered mental state. Raymond Holmes is described as a light-skinned Black man, standing at 5 feet 4 inches tall and weighing around 138 pounds. He has brown eyes and black hair, which he may have worn in a long Afro style at the time he went missing. He also wears eyeglasses with a thick prescription. Authorities believe that he might be in the Williamsburg, Virginia, area, a location where he was known to sometimes camp in wooded areas. This has led to searches and public appeals for any information that could lead to his whereabouts. The investigation into Raymond Holmes's disappearance is being handled by the King and Queen County Sheriff's Office. The circumstances surrounding his case have been classified as an endangered missing person case, underscoring the urgency and seriousness of the situation. Despite the passage of time, his case remains unsolved, leaving a painful void for those who know him. The overview of this case is one of a vulnerable adult who vanished after a period of transition, from a hospital stay to a temporary residence at an inn. The lack of contact and his known medical needs create a deeply concerning picture for law enforcement and his community, who continue to hope for answers.
