Raymond Tyler, the 38-year-old missing Willits man, was tragically found deceased this morning, his sister Colene Brown confirmed.
His remains were located along Highway 101 in the area of Oil Well Hill north of Willits. Brown said her brother’s body was found near a residence after an ad-hoc search was conducted near a home he was reportedly dropped off at around August 5, 2023.
Tyler went missing after he was released from Shasta Regional Medical Center in Redding on August 3, 2023.
Brown told us her brother, “was kind to everyone he met, strangers and friends alike. He went out of his way, even in the depths of addiction and depression, to help anyone that needed it.” She went on to say, “He was abused and neglected from the day he was born and never failed to be a good person. Even at rock bottom he helped other people and smiled while he did it.”
We have reached out to the Mendocino County Sheriff’s Office for more information about the case and will update this article when they respond.
