Tom Dobrowolsky was 26 when he left his Richmond, British Columbia, home on February 21, 1981, and was never seen again. Born in Montreal in 1954, he had lived in several Canadian provinces before settling in Richmond. Authorities have released very little about the day he disappeared: no destination, companions, vehicle, clothing, or events have been publicly described.

Tom was tall and slender, about 6 feet 2 inches and 165 pounds, with brown wavy hair, blue eyes, and a fair complexion. Distinguishing features included both upper front teeth missing, a scar across his nose, and varicose vein scars on both legs. He is also known by several name variants: Tom Dobie, Tom Doby, Thomas Dobrowolsky, Thomas Dobey, and Thomas Dobie, which may be relevant when checking records from other provinces.

Richmond RCMP reference is 1981-5492 and Canada’s national missing-person file lists reference 2014003345. Does anyone have memories or information about Tom, his movements in 1981, or records under any of his known name variants?
