Bryon Lee Smith was 53 when he died in Oklahoma City on May 30, 2012. Born May 11, 1959, in Henryetta, he had roots in small-town Oklahoma and family ties that included brothers Bruce and Brent and a sister Susie. An obituary invited mourners to a graveside service at New Sonora Cemetery in Henryetta but did not mention the circumstances of his death.

Specialized homicide listings later recorded his death as a death by force and categorized the case as an unsolved killing. Oklahoma City’s files list his case among local homicides from 2012 that were not cleared; no suspect, person of interest, arrest, or charge is publicly noted. His name continues to appear in cold-case compilations that mark the case as open.

Did anyone who knew Bryon or his whereabouts in late May 2012 see or hear anything that could help investigators?
