About 10 years ago, I lost touch with a good friend that I'd met through this website. I was living in Oklahoma and had the opportunity to meet many great friends. Many of these friends and I have slowly lost touch. Back then I wasn't much into social media and I never exchanged a good (permanent) email contact with him. His name is Mark Jackson. He drove an early (58-62) convertible beetle, red with a white top. He is a black adult male about 5-09 and 190 lbs. He worked at a tire manufacturing plant just outside of Oklahoma City. He has ties to the Los Angeles area as well as Philadelphia. He is very good with Volkswagens and is quite a poet too. He does the poet night deals here and there. He also writes and performs songs. If anyone has any information on him or can pass on word that I'm trying to contact him, I'd appreciate it greatly.

Start with the obituaries. Often a loved one's funeral can give you a clue.

I have found a number of old friends that way after being out of touch for a few years..
Unfortunately it has been their on-line obituary. Crying or Very sad
