George Robert Miles, known to some as Bobby, was 57 when he left his job at Carlton Massey Ford on Route 13 in Pocomoke City, Maryland, on the afternoon of Saturday, March 30, 1985. At about 2:00 p.m. he told coworkers he was going into town and would be back in a few minutes. He departed in a black 1985 Ford Escort belonging to the dealership and was never seen or heard from again.
Miles is described as 6 feet 3 inches and about 215 pounds, balding with gray hair and brown eyes, with a scar on his nose and a mole on the left side of his chest. On the day he vanished he wore a short-sleeved white shirt with navy blue stripes, dark gray pants, and black shoes. The company car also disappeared and has never been recovered.
Investigators found no signs that he was planning to leave and classified the case as an endangered missing person; authorities have long suspected foul play. The Maryland State Police have handled the investigation, but no significant leads have emerged and the matter remains unsolved.
If anyone knew George Miles, saw that 1985 Ford Escort after March 30, 1985, or has information about his disappearance, please come forward.
