UPDATE
On September 30 at approximately 2:00pm, remains were found in Poweshiek County wearing clothing similar to that of Xavior when he disappeared (Link).. The body was found in a field near the intersection of Ewart Road and 110th Street, approximately 3 miles from Montezuma by a local farmer. The cause of death is not public, but police are apparently considering if foul play was involved. No suspects have been put forth.
Our prayer’s go out to his family and we celebrate the gift that was Xavior’s presence on earth. Sleep in peace sweetheart.
Xavior was last observed riding his bike at approximately 11:00am near his home. His blue bicycle was later discovered at his mobile home, unusual since he usually travelled by bike if he went somewhere (Link). He is not considered a likely runaway.
Xavior was on summer vacation from school, and he would often ride and play with neighborhood children but the kids typically remained nearby. It was unusual for him to leave the mobile home park where he lived or to be gone overnight. He is responsible for his age, often helping with his mother, a single parent who struggled with a physical disability.
Xavior was reported missing by a family friend after his mother and the friend searched for him without success near their home.
He is ‘”joyous,” “remarkable” and “loving,”. . . always has a smile on his face, his dimples shining. Harrelson is a shy kid . . . but he’ll talk your ear off once you get to know him.” – Samantha Rix (family friend)
“He’s nice, and he shares his Legos. He makes people smile a lot. I like everything about him” – Kyle Peerenboom (Rix’s son)
Des Moines Registrar (Link)
The search was expanded from his immediate neighborhood to the surrounding area and Diamond Lake Park. Waterways were searched, dive teams brought in, and ground searches conducted but there is no sign as to what happened to Xavior.
At a benefit concert with local Iowa musicians was held on July 1, 2021, and $31,000+ was raised to contribute to the search for Xavior. Many attendees wore orange, his favorite color (Link).
