Robert Afarian, 45, of Edgewater, New Jersey, was last seen on or about February 7, 1977. His 1974 silver BMW 2002 Series coupe was found abandoned in a parking lot at Kennedy Airport soon afterward, but no confirmed sightings of him have been reported since.

He was described as between 5 feet 6 inches and 5 feet 7 inches tall, weighing about 150 to 160 pounds, with a full head of thick black hair, brown eyes, and an unusual depression on the tip of his nose thought to be from a medical condition. The Edgewater Police Department kept the investigation open; leads have been scarce.

Although he has been legally declared deceased, no remains have ever been found and the family has reserved a burial plot for him. If anyone has information about Robert’s last movements, his car at Kennedy Airport, or unreported contacts after February 7, 1977, please come forward.
