FALMOUTH, Mass. — A $1,000 reward if being offered for information about the location of a Falmouth man who went missing nearly a month ago, and his mother is appealing to the public to help find her son.

Adam Wacholder, 44, was last seen on June 13 and he has health issues, his mother, Peggy Lynn, told Boston 25′s Bob Ward.

“Adam has lived successfully with mental illness and a seizure disorder,” she said. “Adam has built a good life for himself in Falmouth working at Stop & Shop. Adam is 44 years. He is loved by his Mom and Dad and his sister Bonnie as well as the rest of his very large extended family, coworkers and friends and family. Adam is very gentle and kind soul.”

A Facebook page, “Find Adam Wacholder,” has also been created as the family awaits his safe return.

Adam was last seen between the 99 Restaurant on Davis Strait and Gifford Street in Falmouth. He is described as standing 6 feet, 1 inch tall, weighing 220 pounds, with brown eyes, brown and white hair and wearing glasses.

“He is a gentle soul, might be shy if you approach him but very friendly and completely harmless. If you see him, please tell Adam his family is looking for him,” states a post on the Facebook page dedicated to finding him.

Anyone who sees Adam or knows of his whereabouts is urged to call Falmouth Police at 774-255-4527.
