Stephen Eding, 58 and from Novato, California, was last seen on February 26, 2006, and has been missing since. At the time he was classified as a dependent adult because of medical conditions that made him vulnerable. He is 5 feet 6 inches, about 140 pounds, with gray hair, brown eyes and a full beard, and he was missing his teeth. He was last seen wearing a gray and black tweed jacket.

The Novato Police Department lists his disappearance as endangered missing; few concrete leads have surfaced and the case remains unsolved. Community resources such as NamUs and the Charley Project continue to list the case to keep it visible. Any information about Stephen’s movements on or after February 26, 2006, or sightings of a man matching his description could be important. Would anyone with information about Stephen or who remembers seeing him around Novato in late February 2006 please come forward?
