By AnnMarie Cornejo -- A San Luis Obispo man with mild dementia remained missing six days after he took the family dog to a city park and didn’t return home. George Carpenter, 74, was reported missing about 2 p.m. Wednesday, authorities said. He was last seen driving his 1989 Jeep Comanche to Laguna Lake Park with his black Labrador retriever, Scooter. As each day passes, Dixie Carpenter, George Carpenter’s wife of 53 years, keeps vigil by the phone at their San Luis Obispo home, hoping that someone somewhere will find some sign of him.
