Sumner’s grandmother, Charlene Lawson, described, “He was always quiet, always very lovable, and kind. He was very interested in anything to do with the ocean, including its contents and the animals that lived there. He is so smart and just a lovable kid. His friend Logan raves about him.”

Logan and his father made a trip to New York City, determined to aid in the search for Cyris. They walked an impressive sixteen miles through the neighborhoods surrounding the location where Cyris's wallet was discovered. During their visit, they took the initiative to create and distribute posters featuring Cyris's picture and information, hoping to raise awareness and garner support from the community.

Despite their dedicated efforts, the search was complicated by a lack of information. As a result, Cyris's family and friends found themselves working tirelessly, piecing together the fragments of knowledge they had, as they sought to uncover more details about Cyris's situation.

A few sightings have been reported since Cyris's disappearance, including one at Mohawk Trail; however, each report is from miles or even states away.

The North Adams Police Department has issued a BOLO (Be On the Look Out) for a missing person named Cyris, but there are currently no leads in the case. As the search continues, Cyris's family and local law enforcement are urging anyone with information to contact the North Adams Police Department.
