Robert Leeroy Willard, 66, left his Miller County, Missouri home on April 4, 2022, saying he was driving to Colorado to visit relatives. He was driving a 2006 Toyota truck, Missouri plate NG8M8E, and was last seen wearing blue jeans and a t-shirt. Willard is described as a white male, 5 feet 8 inches, about 145 pounds, with brown hair, green eyes, a rose tattoo on his upper left arm and a scar on his back.

On May 7, 2022, his truck was found abandoned in a rural, wooded area of Iron County, Missouri — a location well off the route to Colorado. The vehicle was unoccupied and provided no obvious clues about his whereabouts. The Miller County Sheriff’s Office is handling the active investigation and has asked the public for any information.

If anyone saw Robert, his truck, or anything unusual along roads between Miller and Iron counties in April or May 2022, please share what was seen with investigators.
