Randy Cole <\/strong>disappeared from his home in Holden, Massachusetts on October 9, 2020. He was last seen walking away from his residence, leaving behind his wallet, cell phone, keys, and coat.

Randy was in good health and often walked the trails around Holden, especially the paths off Shrewsbury Street near the WTAG towers and the wooded areas off Blueberry Lane. Friends and community members searched heavily wooded sections in the weeks that followed, but no confirmed trace of him was found.

As months passed with no updates from police, friends created a community page to share information, organize searches, and gather accurate details about Randy\u2019s last known clothing and physical description.

Early rumors, including a black car mentioned on an initial flyer, were later believed to be incorrect, and efforts were made to verify his height, clothing, and the most recent photos available.

Community members have continued to offer tips, search maps, and guidance on how to keep Randy\u2019s case visible. Many have saved screenshots of areas already searched in hopes of coordinating more organized efforts as weather conditions change.
