CROCKERY TWP., MI (WHTC-AM/FM, Apr. 8, 2022) – The Ottawa County Sheriff’s Department was seeking the public’s help in locating an 84-year-old Nunica area man … and as of Friday evening, the mission was accomplished satisfactorily.
Deputies didn’t say how long Merle Hecksel had been missing after being notified around 12 Noon on Friday of his disappearance. The bearded man with glasses, wearing a blue plaid jacket, blue jeans, white tennis shoes and a green Michigan State University baseball cap, was found about six and a half hours later and was safely returned to his family, who had concerns because Mr. Hecksel apparently suffered from dementia and was diabetic. No other details of the cirumstances that led to his discovery were disclosed.
