John W. Getman, 78, was last seen in Irrigon, Oregon, on November 16, 2015. He lived with Alzheimer’s disease and diabetes and walked away from his home wearing a brown Carhart coat, blue jeans, a brown plaid shirt, and tennis shoes. Family and the Morrow County Sheriff’s Office mounted searches immediately after his disappearance.

Searchers followed several reported sightings across Morrow and Umatilla counties in the week after he vanished, but none produced a confirmed locate. Investigators and family considered the possibility that a disoriented Getman may have tried to hitch a ride with a trucker and intended to travel to New York, which widened the geographic scope of concern.

The Oregon State Police still list him as a missing person and the case remains open. Does anyone have information about John Getman’s movements around November 16, 2015, or recall seeing a man matching his description on that day?
