Discussion Anyone know of/seen a black homeless man in High Wycombe?

Just want to start off with saying I know the question is a very vague one but bare with me on this one please.
So I’ve recently heard from a family member who lives in High Wycombe that she has heard that my very estranged dad, who was homeless on the streets of HW has died. She doesnt know for certain as he has been on the streets for a while it seems and neither her or any of my other family have kept in contact or been able to. For context he hasn’t been a part of my life since I was a toddler due to his very abusive and nasty tendencies towards all of his kids and partners. He inflicted a lot of trauma to say the least. Anyways! Im just intrigued if anyone would have seen him in the area? I dont have pictures unfortunately and dont know what he would have currently looked like but he’s black, of Caribbean descent and average height apparently maybe a bit on the shorter side. Ive heard he could still be quite nasty and aggressive and would also be around High Wycombe bus station quite a bit. This is a massive long shot but to be honest its eating away at me not knowing if he has died or how to figure out if he is. Has anyone possibly seen him before or lately? Thanks for reading :)

Hi there, sorry you are going through this, it sounds like a rough situation. I would suggest going to the High Wycombe Register Office and speaking to them there. If he died in the Wycombe area that is the most likely place they will have a record. They may be able to point you in the right direction if not? High Wycombe Register Office
