John Ray "Bud" Mead dissappeared in March of 1954 from Cripple Creek, Colorado while on his delivery route for "Dad's Cookie Company". Bud was two or three inches over six feet tall and had blonde hair and brown eyes.
He had been married once before and had a daughter whose name is either Joan or JoAnn. His first wife's name is unknown to us.
Bud had about eight brothers and sisters. One sister was married to Bill (William?) Avery. His father's name was Virgil.
At the time of his disappearance, he was living in a motel on Alameda Street in Denver, Colorado with his common law wife, Lily Frances (Bridwell) Tomlin.
Their son, Lyle Ray Mead, would like to locate his father or any surviving members of this family.
