Joseph Albert Criner Sr., 57, disappeared in June 1992 while driving from his home in Marietta, Georgia, to visit his daughter in Augusta for a promised Father’s Day dinner. The exact date he left Cobb County is uncertain. He was known also as Joe Overstreet, stood 6 feet 7 inches, had white hair and blue eyes, and was noted for expensive clothing and jewelry. Neither Criner nor his vehicle has ever been found, and there has been no activity on his bank accounts or credit cards since he vanished.

Criner’s background included service in the U.S. Air Force, four marriages, children and grandchildren. Speculation has included a possible vehicular accident into a body of water along the route, such as Lake Oconee, and the possibility of foul play because of his valuable possessions, but no concrete evidence has emerged. The case remains listed as an endangered missing person.

If anyone knew Joseph, traveled that highway in June 1992, or has information about his disappearance, please share what is known.
