(CNN, May 15, 2014) — Radio icon Casey Kasem has been found in Washington state, a representative for his daughter told CNN late Wednesday night.

“The family has grave concerns about his medical care. The Kasem family will do everything in their power to bring their father home,” representative Danny Deraney added.

Kasem, 82, is suffering from Lewy body disease — a common cause of dementia, a spokesman for his daughter told CNN on Tuesday.

On Monday, a judge named Kasem’s daughter, Kerri, the temporary conservator until a June 20 hearing.

But she hadn’t been able to take on the responsibility without knowing where he was.
