COBDEN, IL (KFVS) - The body of a 92-year-old man missing since Tuesday morning has been found.

A helicopter spotted Raymond Baggott's body in a field about a 1/4 mile from his home about 9:30 Wednesday morning.

Police say it appears Baggott got tired, folded up his pants, placed them under his head, and lay down.

Baggott was legally blind and had Alzheimer's.

Crews searched through Tuesday and resumed the search Wednesday morning.

Family members of Raymond Baggott tell Heartland News he is "now with God."
