I searched but didn't find a thread for this gentleman.
I actually stumbled across this case on Craigslist while looking at antiques for sale and other misc. stuff. There was a post under "Items Wanted" asking for information about the murder of Jerry Lee Greer, 71, of Templeton, California (San Luis Obispo County).

Greer was found dead in his home on the 2400 block of Santa Rita Creek Rd. Saturday afternoon by relatives. According to sheriff deputies, relatives checked in on Greer after he failed to make a lunch appointment.
The San Luis Obispo County Coroner said, Greer's death was the result of a gunshot wound to the head.
Jerry Greer: Found dead at his Templeton home in 2009 (17 Feb 2010):
Seven months ago, a killer crept into Greer's Templeton home and shot the 71-year-old man multiple times in the head, shoulder and neck while he slept.
The homicide remains unsolved. No suspect has been named. No clear motive identified.
<snip>
Greer was a man of few desires who kept close ties with his family and longtime friends. He lived alone he had been long divorced and rarely traveled far from home. He didn't like change and boldly told those close to him that change is what was wrong with the country.
He didn't trust banks and was rumored to keep a large amount of cash in his home.
No one is sure whether that might have prompted the killer to slip in through his back door in March, but authorities say nothing was obviously out of place or stolen.
