DAVID COOK MORSE

In 2009, David was living in Asheville, Ohio. He was in poor health, and his driver's license was suspended, so he spent most of his time at his home with his two dogs.

David lived alone and while he didn't have company very often, he did allow other people on his property sometimes to fish in the pond.

On July 22, 2009, David's home burned to the ground. The cause of the fire was suspicious but was ruled undetermined. David was missing.

His van was still in the drive, and sadly, the remains of his two dogs were found in the ashes after the fire.

There were no human remains found, however.

Authorities believe that David likely met with foul play, but they don't know why, how, or even where he is.

David is described as a Caucasian male, standing 6'2" and weighing around 155 pounds when he was last seen in July of 2009. He has brown hair and blue eyes. David was 54 years old then, and would today be 69.

Anyone with any information on David Cook Morse, is asked to contact the Pickaway County Sheriff's Office at 740-477-6000.
