***UPDATE: John Meyers has been found safe***

A statewide Silver Alert has been issued for a man who is missing and believed to have dementia or some other cognitive impairment.

83-year-old John Meyers went to the VA Clinic in Green Bay for an appointment at 10:00 a.m. Tuesday morning. Meyers left at 10:30 a.m. from the VA Clinic. The only other place Meyers was going to go was to Costco to get gas.

Meyer's wife, Carol, contacted the VA Clinic at approximately 3:45 p.m. after Meyers had not returned home. VA Police then contacted De Pere Police Department.

Meyer has a tattoo on his left forearm of a palm tree, and a tattoo of a heart with the words "mom and dad" on his right forearm.

He was last seen wearing blue jeans, a gray sweatshirt, and a black winter jacket. Meyers is driving a Gray Ford Fusion with the Wisconsin license plate 592-URN.
