Search Party Organizing Sunday to Look for Missing Lake Villa Man

The family and friends of Nick Steward, a man from Lake Villa who has been missing since Sept. 20, will organize a search party Sept. 29 out of Lake Forest.

The search party will meet at noon at 26125 N. Riverwoods Blvd., Lake Forest. They'll meet on the top deck of the parking garage on the south side of the CDW building, according to the Find Nick Steward Facebook page. 

The search organizers will be at the location until 12:30 p.m. and will hand out 10,000 copies of a flier that has been created to help find Steward. Volunteers should bring a staple gun and/or tape to hang fliers, along with a pen.
 
Steward, 33, a Libertyville High School graduate whose parents live in Vernon Hills, was driving a 2008 white Saturn Aura with the Illinois license plate No. 563 7543 when he went missing. He was traveling on I-294 and passed through the Touhy Avenue toll at 5:32 p.m. He had called his wife to tell her he was on his way home, but he never arrived.
