Tommy Dean Wampler, known as Tom, disappeared after being dropped off at an apartment complex on Windy Hill Road in Marietta, Cobb County, Georgia, in November 1984. He was 49 at the time and had lived in Fernandina Beach, Florida, and on St. Simons Island, Georgia, with family ties in Arkansas. Friends who had been hosting him in Charlotte, North Carolina, gave him a ride and left him at that Marietta location; he was never heard from again.

Descriptions list him as a white male with sandy brown curly hair, blue eyes, and a burn scar on his leg from childhood. Height and weight were reported at about 5 feet 6 inches to 5 feet 8 inches and 180 to 200 pounds. The Cobb County Police Department and the Atlanta Police Department handled the investigation, but no significant leads have been reported and the case went cold.

Why was he in Marietta that day and where was he headed after being dropped off? Anyone with information about Tommy’s movements or contacts in November 1984 is asked to come forward.
