Condrey was described as a black man, standing 5 feet 10 inches tall and weighing 180 pounds. He has short, black hair and brown eyes.

He was last seen wearing a green camouflage shirt, black pants and white sneakers with paint on them.

Developed in 2007, Silver Alert is a system to quickly notify the public about missing endangered adults who suffer from dementia or other cognitive impairments, such as Alzheimer's disease.

It also allows caregivers and nursing homes to report a person missing. In the past, only a family member could report an adult missing.
