Rocky Najera Brizar was 20 when he was last seen in Carbon County, Wyoming on December 25, 1985. He was described as a Hispanic male, 5 feet 6 inches, with brown hair, brown eyes and a mole near his right eye. The Carbon County Sheriff’s Department was the investigating agency.

After decades with almost no information, a death certificate located in an online database identified Roque Rocky Najera as having died on April 9, 1987, in a fire in an abandoned building in Seattle, Washington; the cause listed was smoke inhalation and his age was 21. Authorities have tentatively confirmed the certificate belongs to the man who went missing in 1985. The discovery brought closure and heartbreak to the family after nearly 40 years.

If anyone has memories of Rocky, knew where he might have been between late 1985 and 1987, or can help confirm details about Roque Najera, please share what is known.
