Thomas Wilburn Tucker, known as Tommy, was 39 when he was last seen working on a boat on the Mississippi River in Tensas Parish, Louisiana, on a day in February 1996. He’s described as a Caucasian male with brown hair, 5 feet 8 inches and about 190 pounds. Specifics about the boat, his duties that day, or what he was wearing are not available.

No physical evidence or personal items were ever recovered, and search efforts turned up no sign of him. Investigators and family have long considered an accidental fall overboard into the powerful river currents a plausible explanation, but that theory has never been confirmed. The Tensas Parish Sheriff’s Office lists the case as Missing and it remains open.

Does anyone who worked on or near the Mississippi in Tensas Parish in February 1996 remember Tommy or have any information about the boat he was on?
