Does anyone have an idea on how to find a Marine?

My friend James O Gambrel lives in CO. Myself and another friend have stayed in touch with him over the years. However, he fell off the grid a few weeks ago. He is not on RP, has no FB and I do not know his address. His phone is off and he doesn't reply to email. We are worried he may do something. Sadly several years ago and friend in our circle took his own life. Does anyone have ideas on how I might be able to contact him?

As mentioned, other friends/family?
Keep leaving messages on phone. When it comes back up they will come through.
Last resort-local law enforcement if you know city and county. A call in to them for a favor to a concerned vet might work, never know. The other part of that though, is sometimes we just want to be left alone and this could be that time?
If you really want it to stay off radar-private investigator.

There is a website, can't think of it at the moment. Its for veterans to find one another. Or if you know their name and where they are from. Go to one of those online searches and do a lookup. It will cost you but, if you were close and want to reconnect, it is worth it.
