CASE DETAILS
Former mayor of Cornelius Ralph Brown missing since May 16, suffers from dementia and had not had his memory or heart medication since he left his Cornelius, Oregon.
His daughter, Laurie Saunders, said during a news conference that she spoke with her father the night he went missing shortly after 9pm and that he wasn’t sure exactly where he was.
He told her he was “literally in the bushes,” and that he might be near a golf course, but couldn’t give her more specific details. He also asked if people were out looking for him.
She told him to wait for a call from his son, who was going to go out and find him, but Brown didn’t answer the phone after that, and nobody has been able to find him, even though hundreds of people out there helping with the search.
Brown is 76 years old, about 5-foot-10, with white hair and blue eyes. He's also missing the tip of his index finger.
His car is a dark blue, 2014 Nissan Sentra with Oregon plates.
There had been a few sightings reported, but none were substantiated, said Daryle Brown, Ralph Brown’s son.
Daryle said his parents were in their home on May 16 when Brown stood up and said he was going to his “other house.”
Ralph has early-onset Alzheimer’s symptoms, which leads to confusion. He no longer has a driver’s license and has not driven a car in more than a year, Daryle said.
He drove away from the home in the 600 block of South 12th Avenue in Cornelius, Oregon.
There had been no location pings on his phone after 10:25pm that evening, and no communication from Brown in the time since he’s been missing.
This video/documentary shares with you the final search for Ralph and what it took to bring him home.

Jerrid, I know it’s difficult knowing you may have missed something but you never gave up and followed your instincts and found Ralph. You guys are angels on earth. Take care of yourselves and know what you do makes a huge difference in so many lives. 💜
Don't be so hard on yourself Jared, you are still on a learning curve that may last for as long as you are doing this type of recovery. You can only work with the knowledge you know. You are probably one of the best in the world at what you do.
Do you guys ever search for bodies not in a vehicle but known to be underwater?
Don't beat yourself up the water depth probably made the difference in the sonar "picture" and picking a car out of that pile. You're skill and determination is what found him.
God bless
Thank you for your diligence in bringing Dad home!
My sincere condolences to your family Laurie. I'm so grateful AWP found him for you and relieved that awful feeling of not knowing what happened. May Ralph rest in peace.
All my condolences to you Laurie and your family your father seemed like a wonderful man.. you can tell how loved he is.. god bless xoxo from Philadelphia
I just wanted to pop in here and say, there is no shame in the joy that he's been found. I know so many people are so judgemental and berate loved ones and the search teams for being happy, and uplifted when the missing are found, but you should be happy. You should feel blessed. You have them back and it lifts such an immense burden from your soul. Ralph can rest peacefully now xx
He was a wonderful man and very loved by many! I never knew him since I live in another state but this group has honored him! Many people who never met him know his name. It makes me wish I knew him. I’m so sorry for your loss.
@@DougBishop did you ever find out if that little stuffed bunny was any significance ? This is a very teary-eyed moment. So thankful for Jared's intuition that took you guys back to that spot. You always put your life in danger for every second you are in that water. Thank you both for your bravery and perseverance. You are a hero to many. May Mr.Brown rest in peace.
Jared - Please know that you didn't let us down. You and Doug are awesome. Live and learn :)
There are probably less than a dozen people in the world who can do what you guys do, this was no mistake it was a miracle that he was ever found. You should have no regrets. You guys are heroes!
@@soundman6241 yes ! you are so correct.
If the car was covered by logs & debris Jared wouldn't have found it the last few times he scanned the area but he trusted his instincts. No doubt the logs & debris moved enough to enable Jared to find it this time & bring Ralph home. The bunny was a sign just like the balloons. R.I.P Ralph
My sincere condolences Laurie, Mom, Brother and the rest of the Family. I am glad that AWP was able to bring your Dad home and closure for the Family. ❣🙏
So true! Why is Doug doing most of the diving?
Jared, I am a detective and have been in law enforcement since 1995. A back ground investigator once asked my husband what my best trait was he said, "tenacious" the investigator then asked what my worst trait was he said, "tenacious" You fall in that same title as me. This episodes reaction is proof positive you are the best at your work. Never ever ignore your intuition. Your dedication, determination, and tenaciousness is why you never gave up on Ralph. Keep up the good fight! Excellent work.
Beautiful words
100% be a terrier
❤❤❤🙏🏻
Ralph was one of my school teachers in the early 1970s. Thank you for bringing him home. He was loved by all and a great man.
❤
The fact that you felt the way you did when found the car after retracing your steps is what makes you the perfect person for the job you do.
Absolutely. I wish everybody with a missing loved one could have somebody so humble and sincere trying to bring them home.
It shows your integrity, lack of egotism, humility, and the perfect character to do this work. Open minds continue to learn, closed minds that blame circumstances do not. God Bless all of you.
Jared, don't beat yourself up. You were meant to find Ralph when you did. No sooner, no later. You and the team are doing great on bringing families closure.
Totally concur...in the bigger picture, Jared provided closure...that's what counts. A hundred years from now, that's what will stand in the records...
I agree with you Anna. Things happen for a reason that we can’t explain. It was meant to be for him to be found when he was.
I commented the same thing. Ralph knew it wasn’t time to find him yet!
Such a true comment. We may never know why things happen they way they do but it always works out in the end
I can also understand the frustration and disappointment in the moment knowing that the area was searched before. In the end, the family got an answer on where he was and are able to have some peace in his return to them. I hope they are all doing well given the circumstances.
Jared, seeing you beat yourself up over clearing that area before makes my heart hurt. You guys are doing work that other people can't do and you do your best, every time. If his car was covered, in debris, it was hidden then...and your heart drew you back there again, so that's pretty amazing. You did this for that family. Good job.
Totally agree broke my heart to hear his pain and anguish in that moment but these men are wonderful and so compassionate true heros and should never doubt what they do or their ability. They're learning as they go as he said and for that alone they should feel confident and proud to be bringing so many cold cases back to their loved ones xoxo
Bless you man you just took the words out of my mouth.
Absolutely. Couldn't haven't said it better myself.
I agree, don’t beat yourself up! Your instincts brought you back to that place.
Jared, you are too hard on yourself! You said it yourself, you said there had been floods. The debris has changed.
Im a 30 year old man in tears because of this episode.... Jared, NEVER beat yourself up, debris moves, indications become more clear over time and you did everything you could in your power and whether it took a day or a decade you found that familys loved one! Keep up the good work! Much love to all of AWS team. You guys are amazing at what you do.
The way Doug started consoling Jared immediately was so touching. You guys are an amazing team due to your skills, empathy, and understanding of each other.
Doug,all that you've done as an adult,came into play today to get Ralph rescued and onto land. What a statement from God that each year of your adult life s experience was used today.You are special and have confirmation from heaven.
Touching…it’s beautiful to see. They brought him home as a team. They did it.❤️
Jared, don’t go there man. Look at how many cases you have solved that the police couldn’t. You’re awesome at what you do. Keep your head up and keep fulfilling your purpose❤
Praise be to God!!!
@@craigdobis10 I'm not religious, but yes. This is the courage and light that this man needs to keep going! He's done so much
"I have your dad." Omg I lost it. Jared I cannot believe you could doubt yourself ever. The amount of good you have done. ❤️
If I had a lots of money I would get you guys a little rescue submarine !! You guys are great, so human and caring.
So AMAZING that Jared, Doug and the guys never gave up on Papa Ralph!! My family is forever grateful for these guys, and have never once felt upset that it was missed previously. We are just so glad that they never stopped thinking about him, and that they were able to bring him back to us, and give us closure. 😊 Forever thank you to AWP!
Thinking of you and your family as you process this step on your journey. You now have Papa Ralph home so there is no more wondering where he is. I am sure you still have many questions but hope that with your memories and each other you are able to move forward. RIP Ralph Brown xx
You guys are Angels in disguise! I'm at awe!!!
Hugs from Oklahoma!
Jared, a professional grows with every intervention they perform. This is every professional in any field. I am a retired RN with 40 years critical care experience. I have done sleep studies as well as noninvasive vascular studies. There is a learning curve with everything you do. I have walked into a patient's room in the ICU and instinctively knew something was wrong. So you check and double check. You think on it and go back and check again. It could be that an EKG lead is a little loose. It could be anything. You said yourself the water is deeper than it was. There is a lot of debris. Atmospheric changes could have moved the debris and now the car is visible. Your gut led you back. You have not let the family down. Don't kick yourself around the block. But the fact that you question yourself is the sign of a consummate professional. When you question yourself you grow as a person. Stay safe.
it’s sad to not see him out mowing the lawn across the street now, but at least you brought him home ❤ thank you
Jared, do not beat yourself up over this, you guys do amazing work, the main thing is you found him
that was my thoughts as well... You guys have come along way and the difference is by the 3rd trip it wasnt so new and had some silt build up. Made it clearer to see.
The emotion of this video is strong. Don't beat yourself up Jared. NO ONE is perfect. You guys found Ralph. It should be more of an relief than beating yourself up. You brought Ralph home. That's all it matters. You guys are amazing and never stop what you are doing. Much love to you guys.
Agree, nomatter how many times they've scanned the area and searched it can be an easy miss each time, details that are camouflaged into the aquatic floor is easy to miss; the fact they find missing people including this one shows they care and really work very hard to find missing people their heart cares so much that they develop an emotional connection for the missing and the family with the missing loved ones. I'm glad he's found and the many others they've found too.
very strong !!!!! Jared is very taken aback and confused and the emotions are way way high
I agree Jared you still brought Ralph home . you have said That new cases are harder to find . It's ok your not to fault at all . Sending hugs to you Jared ..
He says he felt this affected his credibility, and I agree! His credibility is by far better now. He has shown he will persevere and do everything in his ability including taking new knowledge and things he's learned to bring these individuals home. Kudos AWP
Well there sure was an angel sitting on Jareds shoulder that urged him to keep going back. Few are the persons who would give their time and energy to help heal others.
Great team AWP. Keep up the great job you are doing.
Your style of documenting your rescues, and not stretching it out without revealing what happens, makes you truly inspiring. I stay tuned because of your professionalism and compassion. It just shows that the old style of not revealing the outcome until the end is so passé. Your work is admirable and makes me want to help.
Jared really understands the mechanics of cars in the water, drifting and sinking. It’s a gift.❤ good job guys. Your work is amazing 😊
Jared, don't do that to yourself. You're an amazingly selfless person doing a difficult job. We all see the dedication, skill, and perseverance of you and your team. As Doug pointed out, there's a lot of current and a lot of debris. It's entirely possible that Ralph's car has been buried and unburied several times in the last year. Missing Ralph isn't your fault.
I totally agree Jared said that it was a pile of trees last time and easily missed.
Agree 1000%
Came to say just this. If Jared had never come back for this 4th (?) time, that would've been letting the family down. BUT HE DIDNT. HE CAME BACK. He chased that gut feeling, he came back even though he thought he'd cleared the area. That's not failing; that's dedication, and a willingness to keep an open mind and consider that he may have missed something. 100%, He has never failed these families.
@tommurphy
THIS
I could tell how torn up Jared was about having missed this vehicle on his other searches there. It's not your fault, Jared. There were a lot of circumstances that prevented you from seeing it on the sonar. My guess is that it was camouflaged by the trees and debris at the time. You trusted your instincts and didn't give up. You have learned and gotten more experience. Try not to beat yourself up. I know that's easier said than done, but remember, no one else found him either. You kept asking yourself "What if I missed something?" and kept going back to make sure; and in the end, you found him and brought him home. The fact that you were so upset shows how much you care. Thank you and Doug, and the rest of the AWP team for doing this. You are appreciated!
I can understand how much you want to bring everyone home and you do in the end I love what you do xxx keep up the amazing work love you
The important thing is that they're home
Not me over here crying. Thank awp for never forgetting Ralph and for bringing him home. May he rest in peace. Focus on what you have gained and learned not what was missed scene changes day to day and you accomplished the end result for the family. Thank you for what you do!! Your team is amazing
Me too. It’s the onions.
Hearing the weight being lifted off of the daughter when she found out her dad was found was heart warming because she no longer has to worry about not having her dad home to have a proper burial. I'm sure they have grieved and already came to the conclusion that he was gone. They just wanted to give him the burial that he deserved. You guys are awesome. Thank God for you all 💗
You didn’t let anyone down, in fact you didn’t give up when you could have. That’s what makes you great, the fact that you keep going when no one else does. On behalf of everyone thank you for what you do. It is amazing and I wish there were more people like you guys around the world helping find the missing.
“Today is not the day to start to learn how to do stuff”
it’s nice to see when people can be humble and understand experts might do a better job than yourself
Yep, that's a good man right there.
If they actually chose to search...
a great example!
It wasn't that so much as this was a beloved man to family, friends, and constituents, and to respect him, today was not a day for amateurs to handle the situation.
True knowledge is knowing the extent of one's own ignorance
The important part is that you kept trying and learning along the way. You still brought him home and brought his family peace. Now you can use this experience to find the next person faster. Don’t let it eat you up too much. Your work is too important. Your determination is incredible ❤️
I have watched this episode like 5 times, @23:59 when Carson asks if Jared found Ralph, the look of determination on Jared's face and the emotion welling up in him get's me every time. I cry along with many others for the emotional moment you go through Jared. You held it together knowing you were on camera but I can tell you this, if it were me, I would have/and have been balling my eyes out. Such a testament to you and Doug and the crew for not giving up. And the bunny is clearly a sign from God in my humble opinion. Doug you brink up the Carrie may Parker point of the balloons, and you are right, there is 'extra energy' or higher power at work with you guys, don't dismiss those signs. I don't know if anyone else notices this but EVERY time Doug goes under water he crosses his chest in prayer. I do it with you Brother, every time. I have seen the news about your loss recently Doug and I am so sorry.
Jared, you've said in defense of other agencies that things can read different at different times. And that your skills developed over time. Extend that graciousness to yourself. And that you've kept searching you've not let them down. If you would've said 'it's clear and we're done', that would've let them down. It's ok to feel sad that you missed him before, but forgive yourself any ill will you've got. As you say, you're learning more and more every season. Ultimately you brought closure to another family, thank you for being tenacious in your drive to help.
Amen Johny.
Well said.
Took the words out of so many of our hearts. Couldn’t have said it any better.
Exactly! Being drawn to that one place over and over. The intuition was spot on, the conditions were just never right for the car to be seen. That day in May everything aligned and Ralph was found.
Jared, man, you didn’t give up. You didn’t say, “We’ve cleared that spot. To go back would be a waste of time.” You didn’t give up and your team brought Ralph home. Prayers that you find peace about this case. You’re a good man doing a tough job.
AMEN!!
Jared, you should not be so hard on yourself. You guys do this for free and you started out by finding abandoned cars that didn’t have people in them and over the videos that I have watched you guys are still learning it doesn’t matter how much we know we still are learning as people. And I have so much respect for what you do.
I can’t believe how committed you 2 are! To actually return to the earlier search and look again knowing that there must be something else here that you missed and finally finding this man! Congratulations to the team for your dedication and belief for these people xxxxx RIP sir you will never be forgotten xxxx
That’s what you call pros! When they feel something they have to go back and realign everything! That’s what makes them a perfect team! (COMMITMENT)!!!!! 💯🔥
Jared and Doug are true empathy. The care and concern that they handle every case shows the commitment to the purpose. I am impressed with the way the vehicle was rigged to recover it as intact as possible. The towing company was very good and worked well as a team with Jared and Doug. The sheriffs office deserves a shoutout for allowing the team to use their expertise and not demand to recover the vehicle themselves. I’m sorry for the families loss.
Jared - you should never feel guilty for telling the family you were confident in clearing the area before. Nobody is perfect. And you kept feeling drawn to come back. And you kept gaining more experience to know more than you used to know. You didn’t give up and that’s honorable!!! Your heart is gold!!!
Jared, you are human, you Never gave up. That is the most important thing to remember. Prayers to you and your team well-being. Learn and move forward❤️
"Today is not the day to start learning how to do stuff."
This quote right here from the Mr. Elliott at 47:07 ... that's what helping is about. If you can't do it now, let those that do make it and learn while they do it. No pushing down, only lifting up. I'm happy to see that the AWP movement came so far that people now are more open to it to help people finding their loved ones.
Right??? That kind of understanding by Law enforcement to put common sense before ego is amazing and makes you feel good they do exist.
I actually laughed out loud for that. That was SO on point. Kudos to those guys too for being true professionals.
I really think what hindered y'all in the earlier searches was the sheer amount of debris over and around the area. You also stated there had been a couple of floods since Ralph went missing, so the amount of debris has changed over time and the vehicle was finally revealed. You guys are still doing things that no one else has done. Keep up the great work.
I hope one day, an obligated party would recognized you guys. Because for me, you guys deserve any humanitarian award for what you do for the community not only in the US, but overseas. We need much more groups of people like you guys, especially in a world that we live in today, where any decency is hard to come by. I know I'm commenting on an older video, but I've binged watch your entire content for a few days now and I'm not even half way done. I've been living in a state of mind where it's hard for me to believe if there's any really good people left in this world , or are they just fakes, doing it just for content, and what not. But not you guys, I can feel the emotion every time you guys found your target and it feels real. I'm glad you guys shares your journey here on this platform. I believe you guys are honest people, and I believe that you guys are blessed to have the ability to do the things that normally people would charge for. I'm personally wishing you guys all the best from across the world, let it be known that AWP also has their supporters here in Malaysia. God bless.❤
You can see how important this is for Jared, bless you man 🙏
Jared, the bottom line is you “found” him. Without your instincts and persistent he would still be down there. Give y’all some emotional and mental break. I do believe that you and your crew of divers have been lead to do what you do. If not you would have failed in the beginning. Angels in wet suits. ❤️✌🏻🇺🇸
Love that.. "Angels in wet suits"
Every situation is different and unique in its own way, these waterways have lots of debris that get in the way and hide these cars, just a storm or the movement of the currents can change things.
Maybe he waited until his wife and daughter were out of town to be brought home because he knew that it would be extremely hard on them seeing the car coming out of the water. I believe that the teddy bear was a sign from him. Prayers for his family and a huge thank you to Adventure With Purpose and all who helped.
@@andrewclayterman6230 Mee too.
This is such an incredible and emotional episode. Sending my love and condolences to Ralph Brown's family. Mr Brown looked like such a wonderful and loving man. I am so thankful to Jared, Doug and all the members of AWP for all they do to help families bring their loved ones home. The fact dthey found the car under all the trees is amazing. It broke my heart that Jared felt bad that it took longer to find him - I don't think any one else would have been able to bring Mr. Brown home to his family and the community who loved him so much.
As a former military recovery specialist with many years of lifting 60k lbs mraps rolled over into a canal etc I was absolutely horrified watching him sit on the bottom of that car while it was being pulled in chains and cables are not forgiving when they snap under load and I don't wanna see anyone get hurt because you guys have so many more people to help and family to live for God bless you all for everything you do!
Jared just because ONCE just once out of how many cases you missed one don't be hard on yourself, nobody's perfect you do your best and you and the gang do way more than anyone else !We are all grateful for you !
Can anyone see this? You never gave up looking for Ralph Brown and gave it everything you had and more. From the comment section, Ralph’s disappearance was always on everyone’s mind from the very first video. out. I continue to be impressed by how steadfast and loving this group is. Thank you! Every video whether someone is found or not makes me just want to help out more! Their hearts are the lighthouses. Believing in them stokes that blaze that keeps them optimistic to finding the missing like Ralph Brown!
Literally found your channel about a week ago, and omg you guys are absolute heroes! The pure fact that you had 8 goes at finding this man who you didn't know for free is a credit to you and your team! You shouldn't believe that you made a mistake and missed him the first times you should be proud that you carried on looking and eventually got him and gave his family the answers they needed! You guys are amazing!
Watching a few of these episodes makes me wonder how many people are missing all around us and we just don't see them. You guys are the best doing this job is pretty amazing
I watch a lot of these videos and the other day I was struck by the realization that whenever you are out on the water, or even by a lake just picnicking… that pretty water/lake/river… could be holding sunken vehicles - possibly with remains inside!!! whoa.
I agree! A popular lake we had property on in Mi had a body in it! Small lake with only 2 camping area and a teenager found the body!
Jared, my heart was breaking for you in your self frustration over not finding him the first few searches. For believing and telling the family Rogers Landing was cleared. Many people searched and missed him, many people moved on to somewhere else. What makes you so OUTSTANDING is your instinct and determination to continue the pursuit. I firmly believe you did something that nobody else could have done and you got the results nobody else would have. For that, Sirs, you have my utmost respect and quite likely the same will be said by others as well.
The current and the debris made this case exceptional. You ultimately brought peace to this family.
He’s just being a baby. He needs to let professionals do this or get better at it. They treat this like a hobby and if you gonna cry dude just go work a desk somewhere or suck it up.
@@ranranpoopants bruh what the fuck are you talking about. These guys have found 23 people the "professionals" couldn't. He has every right to be frustrated because he knows he could have found him much sooner. Stop talking out of your ass.
@@ranranpoopants Shut your mouth. They have been doing this for years, bringing back home deceased for families and your over here being rude to him? You have no soul. What are the “professionals” gonna do big guy? Huh? They solved cases that are 6 or even 10 years old. The “professionals” that you do desperately rely on are not gonna do crap unless it’s a day old or something. You go out there and try to do their job. They try their best to help this world and you give them this? I pity you
@@ranranpoopants and besides. Where were they during this case? If you ask me, they were busy sipping on a cup of tea saying “oh this person still missing, OH WELL!” Not our problem. They are real professionals in doing this if you ask me. They don’t give up even if they can’t find the person
Jared, no one is infallible. Everyone has made and will make mistakes. No one, no matter how good they are or how hard they try will ever be perfect. That you are willing to try says everything about where your heart is and how much these families mean to you. The main thing you should take from this is what you learn that will help you help even more families. Thanks for what you are doing.
This is an extremely emotional video. Watching the the conversations about their doubt and how stressed they felt about missing him in previous searches was upsetting to watch. You have not let us down.
I hope AWP is not going to disappear into oblivion. 1 man does not make rhe wonderful team you are. If sponsors can't see that they are blind. Bless you for what you do, the danger you put yourselves in to help others. And as for people talking about the remuneration you receive are hypocrites. You work hard and give up time with your families. As well as you obviously can't do this as well as hold down a 9-5 job. And from what I can see loads of money is going into updated technology & obviously upkeep of equipment etc etc.
Not to mention, it's supposed to be innocent until proven guilty. Jared has yet to be convicted. People are so quick to write the man off before he's even had a chance to go to trial. An arrest does not equal quilt. Wait until there's a verdict in the case before passing judgment.
Thank you Tammy! I've tried to make people understand this! Our country is better than this! We don't convict people on social media! My heart breaks for Jared!
The fact is that you came back to the same spot even though you were sure it was cleared is the very opposite to letting the family down. Awesome job!!
Jared, you found him when you were meant to find him. You’ve learned and continue to learn so much and so quickly. The important thing is that you didn’t give up and you listened to that voice inside you that kept pulling you back. Give yourself the same grace, love and understanding that you would give your crew, your friends or your family. You deserve that much for yourself. Beating yourself up isn’t going to make anything better or easier. Now you can take the knowledge you’ve gained to help other families and going ahead you’ll learn to trust that instinct or inner voice when you feel it.
You and Doug are really an amazing team. You talk things out when you disagree about what you see or don’t see but you understand that the other isn’t saying it to be hurtful but to help a family. It’s a kind of understanding we all should try to have for others.
Jared,I'm so sorry that this world has put some kind of devasting tarnish on something so unselfish,and thought provoking,and whatever you've gone through in the past,never let it be enough to stop bringing them all home.... Thankyou
People who live in the past,are doomed to relive it
The way you get so emotional over these recoveries is inspirational 100 percent the way we should always care about each other. Thanks again for the most uplifting watch anywhere.
As a Fellow Newbergonian, we thank you for closure 💜 don’t beat yourself up for not catching it sooner, the willamette is a difficult river. My dad use to be part of the search and rescue dive team in Newberg, so I use to hear about how difficult it was. Don’t be hard on yourself, you stuck to your gut and your gut proved you right so don’t then doubt it ;) you and your team are amazing and we thank you. 💜💜💜
I am in tears! This was a very moving video (as they all are), and you guys are Angels on Earth to do what you do time and time again! Jared, you should never feel bad about not finding anyone right away. If you gentlemen didn’t do this, these people would NEVER be found. ❤️🙏😇
My sentiments exactly. May God Bless and keep you all safe
So true!
Good, I don't feel so silly for crying! 😕
You guys are an amazing team and you do a great job. You are replacing the institutions that should have solved these cases sooner. I admire you for your calmness and composure, full of professionalism!
Chapeau bas!
I love how your entire crew is so respectful of the families and friends. You never seem annoyed to keep looking. We appreciate all your work and sacrifice 🙏
From a bunch of hobbyists to a well experienced team of professionals... what a journey.
An adventure with a purpose 😎
Spiritually speaking, sometimes the deceased let you know when they are ready to be found. Remember Carey Mae Parker had the birthday balloons 🎈, and now Doug mentioned as if the sunlight was shinning on Ralph’s car, so please don’t be so hard on yourself. Sometimes it just comes down to divine timing , so that everyone is mentally and emotionally prepared for an outcome. Amazing work, amazing guys. You never gave up. 💜
Well said…
@@KatsSouthernCharms Yes! If my Mom was home, the phone would be ringing off the hook... which it was. Mom and I were able to handle the things that we needed to from WV. 💜💔❤️🩹
There's not a single episode I don't end up in heartfelt tears watching you bring someones loved ones home. Thank you guys from the bottom of my heart. From Sydney Australia 💙🙏🏻
I’m the same way. Especially watching the car come up. It protected the remains all that time, so they could eventually be found.
I’m the same . It’s tough to watch at times . Heartbreaking . These guys are amazing

thank you for everything you guys have done to help these families get closer on what happened with their loved ones. you guys are doing amazing work.
I know that Jared takes every case deeply and personally, so I’m sure this was gut wrenching for you, but everything happens in its own time and not a minute before. You are on this journey for a reason, you have the knowledge you have because you didn’t find him right away. So, you followed your gut, you learn from every case just like you’re meant to. We ALL knew he was there somewhere, and that you would be the one to find him. Great job guys, and thank you Jared, for caring so much. Just know, you are why we are here!
I just finished the Nick Allen episode - and now watching this one.. THIS is exactly how police should act when it comes to a situation like this. Everyone involved in this recovery was top notch. Thank you for all you guys do!
Probably has something to do with Ralph being an elected official.
The police need to be looked at for sure in the nick Allen case. That was horrible
@@ryandriver3341 He's much more than elected official. His case has shined the light on Dementia and the need for a more robust missing and endangered alert system. Which has already been put in place. Thanks to our current elected officials.
Agree 💯 percent ❤️
I've watched a bunch of these, and the Nick Allen case is the exception, not the norm. The sheriff in that case was just particularly terrible.
I am in awe at what your team does. As heart breaking as it was, this family has closure now thanks to ya'll.
Jared, you are an amazing person and you have found people that have been missing for years that NO ONE else found. No one is perfect and what makes you so amazing is your humility, your integrity, your selflessness and your heart. Please never stop what you are doing, never doubt yourself, and do not beat yourself up. If I ever have anyone go missing you will be who I call for help!!!!
If Jared and Doug had not been drawn to this place over and over again, this dear man, Ralph, would most likely never be found. Your expertise, your dedication and your intuition and your relationship with your team made it possible to find Ralph in some very extreme conditions so thank God Doug was safe and the family can process their loss properly now! Nothing is perfect in this world Jared so cut yourself some major slack, you and Doug found him!💕🇨🇦
Ralph was found because YOU didn't give up, Jared! He never would have been found otherwise. You have always been honest with the families, and did the best you could on every search, it's just that wonderful intuition that beats away at you, that gives you reason to try again. I recall Maria Shriver telling a story of her mom, who would ask each child what they did that day to help others. As each replied of their accomplishments, Eunice would ask them, "Did you do enough? Could you have done more?" and I happen to think you are a shining example of someone who always does more. This video certainly proves it. Doug is such a motivational and inspirational person and he truly understands that your expertise grows over time and revisiting cases and areas with new info is what can make you successful. I'm in total awe of what you all do, and how you inspire others to help pro bono. That is amazing in itself.
I second that! Beautifully said, and I completely agree with it all!
Bless you guys. My uncle has been missing since October last year. I wish we had someone like you here. It's been tough on the family. Closure is such an underrated thing.
AWP you all are amazing ! The filming and production of your episodes are amazing. Thank you for your service to the families and supporting law enforcement in recovery and solving missing person cases.
You guys really have a very different definition of "clear as day" as the rest of the public. It's incredible how anyone can read sonar.
I’m glad someone pointed this out! When they show the screens they’re looking at, my mind is blown & completely lost. Takes incredible skill to read it all & to have full understanding of what it all means. Credit to them.
I look at the readings they get and have absolutely no clue what they’re seeing but I’ve really glad they do!
I think it's invaluable that Doug used to run a tow truck. His approach to extracting vehicles has made the difference in a successful outcome once the vehicle has been located.
THank you Jared, Doug and all involved in AWP for never giving up.
To Ralph's family, I'm so sorry for your loss. I'm glad he's been found. ❤
I feel the 🐰 bunny was a sign. Edited to say that all of the cases you've done since he went missing a year ago enabled you to find him this time. Each case is an opportunity to learn something for the next case.
Just because you've been there before.. you didn't give up. Y'all are truly special and awesome. Bless you all. Leta
You got the job done. You did not leave that man behind. This could have easily turned into one of so many missing persons cases that went unsolved forever. You guys are incredible in your skill and dedication. ❤🙏🏻
As a Newberg resident, I so appreciate your thoroughness on this case...even though it caused conflicted feelings on your previous searches...the fact that you came back and the Family has closure NOW 🙏 is A BIG TESTAMENT TO THE TYPE OF PEOPLE YOU ARE. THANK YOU Jared, Doug and crew and your family ...Blessed to have you in our neighborhood.
Conflicted feeling? Why, if I may ask?
@@eirschu8973 I think they feel guilty cause they had already searched that area before and completely missed the car, several times. But they shouldn’t feel bad because they were determined to find him and bring his family peace and went back to the area again, to check again. Like he was saying, he’s worried if he missed this car checking three different times, how many other missing people did he miss in the past?
What they did was extremely difficult and even law enforcement was unable to find the car. They did something incredible and solved his case for free, because they cared about the family members and finding the missing person, not for profit. I understand why he feels guilty, but they’re doing their best and they cannot beat themselves up for not being perfect, because no one is gonna be perfect. They’re good people who are doing something so kind and selfless, they cannot forget that just because they may have made a mistake. They never gave up, and they brought peace to his family.
Stumbled onto this. Absolutely remarkable! Had no idea this kind of thing existed on TH-cam. As a videographer myself, this is excellent work. Storytelling, editing, audio, angles, and of course the purpose of the work…. just remarkable!
I don’t subscribe to TH-cam channels. Very, very rarely. But this is one that moved me enough to subscribe. Keep it up gentlemen. Amazing work you all do!
AWP and Chaos Divers are worth the subscribe. Using social media and the community for good is a rare find.
Highly recommend watching all of their videos. AWP is an amazing team and have so many well done up videos! They deserve all the love, follows and support! 🤍
Omg me too narketing and do it for a non profit stumbled upon this been addicted since
I started watching 2 years ago. when they only had 2 cases solved (the first one they stumbled upon a missing person - Timothy Robinson). AWP became the first channel on TH-cam I subscribed to. Since then, they've solved another 20+ cases, and the production value and their skills continually get better!
THANK GOD FOR THESE MEN! I am so grateful that if I am ever missing a loved one, I could plead for help from these amazing and incredibly gifted human beings!!! These are incredible first responders that have volunteered their way into the hearts and minds of the world! Now they have managed to build a following and upgraded their equipment and RV, and in true hero style donated their used RV to a fellow team doing the same thing. The supporters have managed to fund over twenty recoveries of missing loved ones! Even one is worth immeasurable funds and time.
Jared, it's impossible to be perfect. I know it hurts your heart when you miss something but you're human. Thank you for caring so deeply about what you do.
Thank you for including us , the viewers , along for these adventures…. We are with you all in spirit
My heart was broken seeing you upset like this Jared. Don't beat yourself up. Things happen and can be overlooked. What matters is that you listen to your gut instinct and found Ralph and brought him home. Your on the road alot and of course your bound to get tired and off key. I know, I'm a paranormal investigator and how many cases I invested, evidence to review and more gets to you. But you never gave up and kept following your instincts. Thank you so much to you and the AWP Team for what you do, go through and bringing the loved ones home so these families can have answers & closure. My prayers & condolences to the Brown family
Oh Jared, seeing you so upset hurts. You're such a caring person doing such a hard job. You haven't let anyone down, you kept trying. You found him. There are so many factors to these kinds of investigations as others have mentioned. You did good here.
Absolutely incredible. Thank you for following your intuition. This is heartwarming. You brought him home to his family.
I just want to say to each of you involved in AWP (especially Jared & Doug) that I love & admire what you have done in such a short period of time to help families that are desperately seeking answers & closure & even if never found just to know that someone cared enough to try! I never miss a show & I especially love at the end of the show when you do the tribute to the person. It gives us that even though we never met the person a chance to feel like we do & to celebrate his life & share our love to the family. Thank you will never be enough to cover the appreciation for all each of you do & sacrifice in your life & families! Love & prayers & continued success for the AWP Team !! ❤
Don't start feeling guilty for what you do. You guys have brought many people home to their loved ones. You are awesome at what you do.
That's what gives him the drive to not give up
You can tell how relieved the family members are. From their happy reactions you can tell they've gone through the grieving process and now they are just happy to have answers. Well done, guys 👏
Thank you for all you do. The pictures at the end gave a beautiful sense of who this man was and what appeared to be a well-lived life.
This episode is one of the best. It shows your dedication. It shows your strength and weaknesses. It Shows how human we all are. And a beautiful community bonding. Bravo.
I would like to take a minute and praise Jayden & Carson on their videography and editing. These videos have been AMAZING since you guys came on board.
The background music (score) is perfect too. Fits the mood and dramatic moments perfectly.
Oh my! It’s so good!
I totally agree!
I want to say same thing after I watched the very first AWP video. High quality videos with perfect background music
Agreed, the sounds and cinematography are excellent
Absolutely no one faults you for not finding him sooner. As you have said, with every difficult recovery you learn valuable lessons and acquire more experience that helps you do your best work. Everything happens when it’s supposed to happen, and this was the day you were meant to find Mr. Brown. This lesson is going to help you find someone else in the future. Keep looking for signs, guys, because the balloons in the Parker case were way too on-the-nose to dismiss! Millions of people are praying and cheering you on, and that’s a whole lot of positive energy making things happen in the Universe. Thank you, from all of us who can’t be there every day! #BringThemAllHome !
Amen, exactly as I said!
Jared, don't beat yourself, you're keeping going til you find him, you're human, you're certainly the best people for this job xx
I came across these amazing humans while I was following a different case. Since then I've been up every night till 3-4am watching and crying. What AWP does is the definition of humanity. What heroes you are, thank you for all that you do ❤️
Wow. What an emotional episode. That look on Jared’s face when they found that vehicle hidden amongst those trees literally broke my heart. It just shows that you should never give up. What you guys do is absolutely amazing and inspiring. Keep doing what you are doing because you are changing peoples lives.
Jared, please don’t be so hard on yourself. What you do for so many is so hard to do. My heart breaks each and every time I watch your recoveries. I can’t begin to imagine the stress on you and your entire crew along with your family. I’m very proud of you for doing all of this at no cost to the families. It takes a very strong person to this because you know in your gut that when you find your target it’s the end to a tragic loss. But it’s the beginning of the healing as well. It’s very humbling to watch you all at work. May God bless you all and keep you safe. And please take time to destress and mourn in your own way. Yes, it is closure! But it’s not a easy closure for any of you. Love you and all of your crew and thank you so much for your continued fight to help all in need for answers.
thank you for not giving up and Doug thank you for diving in that dangerous spot. you guys are legends.
Love that you kept going back until you found him. So impressed you never gave up!
I nearly cried when Jared started tearing up 😭 please, please do NOT feel bad. You found him and the family will forever be eternally grateful. Do not second guess anything. You did amazing, as does Doug and the rest of your team. Chin up, you've not let anybody down. Families out there are very lucky to have you guys do what you do. Don't feel bad at all, your instinct is always right and it just proves it when you said you found Ralph before you even dived on the car. ❤️ Keep being amazing. X
I hope people fully realise the danger that Doug puts himself in with these rescues, not once but several times over from the dives in dangerous conditions to the dangerous task of vehicle recovery, utmost respect to anyone willing to risk their own lives to do this for others. I cried several times from the heartfelt guilt from missing the car previously to the respectful recovery. Worlds a better place for such amazing people as yourselves.
It makes me feel a little bit better about how many times an area has been searched by other dive teams, then you come along and find it within an hour or two. When even experts like you can miss it the first try, it is easy to see how those other dive teams can miss something. But you didn't give up. Something brought you back. Forty feet down, covered with trees, how easy it would be to miss it. But you found it, and you brought him home for the family. Good work. Thanks for being as wonderful as you are.
Watching this video for the second time right now and it's hard to see Jared be so hard on himself for having "cleared" the area previously.
This man cares about the work he does so much
