Family Of Missing Cape Cod Man Posts Obit In Paper

The family of a 23-year-old Massachusetts man who disappeared 10 days ago in Maine has posted his obituary in a Cape Cod newspaper.

Prescott Wright of Barnstable was described by his family in the obituary in the Cape Cod Times on Sunday that he is "a lover of people" and a boat builder who lived for the water.

Wright and 21-year-old Zachary Wells of Burlington, Vt., disappeared on Dec. 20 from a gathering at Wells' home in the Kennebunkport, Maine, village of Cape Porpoise.

On Christmas Eve, Maine Marine Patrol found clothing on Goat Island, a mile from Wells' home. Both have been students at The Landing School, a boat building and yacht design school in Arundel, Maine.

The search was suspended on Thursday and a police spokeswoman said Saturday that there was no new information.
