Cedar Rapids police said they are no longer searching for relatives of Richard Willis, the 56-year-old man found dead in his southeast Cedar Rapids home Tuesday.
Sgt. Brian Been said Willis' sister contacted the police department Thursday morning. She lives in Anamosa, and had learned police were trying to contact Willis' family members while she was watching KCRG-TV9, he said.
Willis was not in good health and died of natural causes, police said. They put out a plea to local media Wednesday morning after attempts to reach his family were unsuccessful.
