JACKSON, Wyo. — Teton County Coroner Dr. Brent Blue is requesting public assistance in locating the next of kin of Hoback resident Raymond Shepard.

Shepard, who was born on May 12, 1938, was found approximately two weeks ago, after being deceased for what appeared to be quite some time.

Dr. Blue told Buckrail that the Coroner’s office is hoping someone will know something about Shepard, and whether he has surviving family.

“We have been told that he has an ex-wife, but that is all we really know about him,” Dr. Blue said.

Anyone with information can contact the Coroner’s office by phone at (307) 249-6267 or by email at bblue@tetoncountywy.gov.
