"[Landon] would be a people person, he's one that can make you laugh," said his father, Eric Skiles. "He smiles easily."

Landon's father says Landon is an outdoorsman who loves to hunt and fish, and who is missed by many.

"He's got lots of people that care deeply about him," said his father.

Landon's father works as a contractor, and one of his clients printed hundreds of flyers for the family to post around the area.

The father says the community, especially those of faith, have been a tremendous support.

"We're praying, we have hundreds and hundreds, even thousands I think now of people that are praying for him and are concerned about him," said Landon's father. "We're definitely concerned about his safety. We want him to be safe, we want him to come home safe."

And he believes that their prayers will be answered.

"We trust that the Lord knows where he's at and can keep him safe and can bring him home safe," he said.
