He had been married 6 months when he went missing (according to a family tree and marriage record from San Diego - which confirms name and age) on Ancestry. His wife was granted a divorce in June 1980, presumably to be able to resolve the estate and get on with her life. He originally came from Miami and both parents are now dead (mother died in 2017).

Bumping for Vinnie... sadly seems a likely Kraft victim.

 

[Piknik]

Is his vehicle missing?

 

[OddOneOut]

Is his vehicle missing?

And, has it been found. If so, where, when, and how was it found.
