James Matthew Zinza, known to family as Jim or Jimmy, was last seen by relatives in Mesa, Arizona in February 1992. He was 30 at the time, described as white, about 5 feet 11 inches to 6 feet tall and 180 to 210 pounds, with sandy light brown or blonde hair that may have been balding or graying, and blue eyes. Jimmy did not own a car and used a ten-speed bicycle for transportation; he typically dressed in Levis blue jeans, a button-down short-sleeve shirt and a tee shirt.

His life was itinerant—he lived at various times in Phoenix, Mesa, Glendale and Flagstaff and did not keep regular contact or updated contact information with his family. What began as familiar gaps in communication turned into prolonged silence after that last sighting. The Mesa Police Department has pursued leads but reported no success in locating him. Jimmy’s family continues to have no contact and no confirmed resolution to his disappearance.

Did anyone who knew Jimmy in the Phoenix–Mesa area in early 1992 have contact with him or remember seeing him around that winter?
