Billie Junior Meyer, also sometimes listed as Billy Meyer, was 55 when he was last seen in Carrollton, Missouri, on September 21, 1982. He was described as a white male, 6 feet tall, about 200 pounds, with brown hair and blue eyes. The known timeline begins the day he left Carrollton with his son for what was to be a family trip west toward Fremont, California, where his daughter lived.

Shortly before departing, Meyer placed a phone call to his daughter and was described as very upset after learning she had renewed contact with his estranged wife. After that call and the departure with his son, Meyer was never heard from again; his son returned to Missouri without him. Meyer’s daughter reported him missing in January 2018 and the Santa Clara County Sheriff’s Department is identified as the investigating agency.

Does anyone have memories of seeing Meyer or that trip in 1982, or information about travel between Carrollton and Fremont that might help fill the gaps?
