Gene Allen McPherson was 42 when he was last seen driving his silver 1978 Ford pickup on the evening of Saturday, May 23, 1987, in Craig County, Virginia. He lived in New Castle. About a week after his disappearance the pickup was found abandoned at an I-81 rest area in Radford, Virginia, and his wallet was located in the grass beside the interstate.

Investigators later questioned John Edward Colclasure, who admitted to killing McPherson. Colclasure was convicted of McPherson’s murder, but never disclosed the location of the body and died in prison in 2002. McPherson’s remains have not been recovered.

Does anyone have information about McPherson’s last known movements between Craig County and I-81 in Radford, or about the 1978 silver Ford pickup after May 23, 1987?
