In the late summer of 2017, a 55-year-old man named Joseph Michael Bolduc, often called Joe, disappeared from Goodyear, Arizona. On August 26, 2017, he was last seen on foot near the intersection of Estrella Parkway and Van Buren Street. At the time he went missing, Joe was described as being 5-feet-10-inches tall, weighing between 155 and 180 pounds, with brown eyes and dark brown hair that was partially gray. He wore prescription glasses and had a few distinguishing physical features, including a broken nose and a large, round brown birthmark on his left thigh. The only piece of clothing he was known to be wearing on the day he vanished was a dark-colored pageboy hat, leaving other details of his appearance that day unknown. The circumstances surrounding Joseph Bolduc's disappearance are clouded by a significant delay in reporting. It wasn't until August of 2018, a full year after he was last seen, that he was officially reported as a missing person to the Goodyear Police Department. This passage of time has presented considerable challenges to the investigation. Authorities learned that at one point, Joe had been known to live in the Gila River bottom, an area located just north of the Tres Rio Golf Course. This detail offers a glimpse into his life but also highlights the potential difficulties in tracking his movements. Adding to the complexity of the case, a boat and trailer that belonged to Joe also went missing, and their whereabouts remain unknown. The investigation into Joseph Bolduc's disappearance remains open. The Goodyear Police Department's Major Crimes Unit continues to seek information that might shed light on what happened to him after he was last spotted walking down a street in Goodyear. The case is marked by a number of puzzling questions. He was last seen on foot, yet his boat and trailer are also unaccounted for, leaving a confusing trail for investigators. With no significant leads publicly released, the case has grown cold. For his family and community, the lack of answers is a source of ongoing concern, as they continue to hope for a resolution that will explain his sudden and prolonged absence.
