Jeffrey N. Cluey is missing from Racine, Wisconsin as of June 6th, 2024.
Jeffery is a white male, 6’2”, and 175 pounds. He has brown/blondish, almost shoulder length hair and a full gray/blonde beard. He has blue eyes. It is not known what he was last seen wearing.
He was last seen at the Pershing Park boat launch retreiving a bag from his car before
launching his green canoe into Lake Michigan around 7:30pm. Security cameras captured him putting a carry-on size suitcase into the boat with him. A witness saw him paddle out into Lake Michigan on his canoe around this time. His brother Tim indicated that is common for Jeffrey to take his canoe out at odd times when he couldn’t sleep due to insomnia.
The last time his family heard from him was a few days before he went missing. However, a friend indicated that he was texting with Jeffrey the evening of June 7th. When his friend texted him again on June 8th, he did not receive a response. When his family attempts to call him, the calls go directly to his voicemail.
6 days after Jeffrey was last seen, his car was located by Law Enforcement near the Pershing Boat Launch.
They received a tip on Sunday, June 16th around 9:00 am of a possible sighting of Jeffrey near 3-Mile and LaSalle, far from his home on Chicory. However, Jeffrey’s brother Tim does not believe the sighting was him as there has not been any activity on any of his cards.
A friend offered to take Tim out on his boat to help search for Jeffrey, but high wind has made the lake choppy.
Racine officials have indicated that Jeffrey’s case does not meet the qualifications of a missing person, but they have put out an attempt to locate and a BOLO (be on the lookout) in Racine and Kenosha counties.
Jeffrey's disappearance has been hardest on his parents, whom he visited daily. Tim explained that Jeffrey helped out their 90 year old parents so they could live at home. Tim is planning his own search and is urging others in the area to keep an eye out for any sign of Jeffrey.
Jeffrey is 68 years old.
