Robert Krivolavy, a 64 year old man with Alzheimer’s disappeared from his Des Moines, IA last Saturday. Amazingly, Robert Krivolavy was found safe in San Diego, CA.
Krivolavy’s wife, Bobbi, got a call from him Tuesday night. He told her that he was safe and that he had no idea where he was.
“I know how scary it is for me. I can only imagine how frightened that makes the person with Alzheimer’s,” she said.
His trip began outside the motel that he and his wife manage in Des Moines. He went to get a karaoke machine in their van and never came back.
“It’s like having your kid missing. It’s just the worst thing you can imagine. It’s the same thing for your spouse to be missing,” she said. (KCCI)

Mary Cole, a 66 year old Alzheimer’s patient who disappeared for four days was found in a storage room of the nursing home where she lived . Unfortunately Mary Cole later died at a hospital most likely from dehydration.
Mary Cole, 66, had disappeared Monday from Liberty Nursing and Rehabilitation Center, authorities said. She was found Friday under a table in a storage room at the center, said her daughter, Tammy Terry.
At that point, she was dehydrated but had a heart beat and pulse, Terry said. But she died soon after she arrived at Presbyterian Hospital. An autopsy will be performed.
There seems to be some issue as to why the storage room that Mary Cole was ultimately found in was not searched during the six searches that took place.
A police investigation will focus on why the storage room wasn’t locked and why Cole wasn’t found after six searches, said Charlotte-Mecklenburg police spokesman Keith Bridges.
Terry was perplexed as well.
“The people in that nursing home were wonderful to us. They sat up all night with us. They searched from 7 a.m. to nightfall with us. They cried with us,” Terry said. “But I don’t understand why she wasn’t found.
“They told us they’d searched every nook and cranny of that place.”
