Michel Steve Gagich, who often went by his middle name Steve, left his Hamilton, Ontario, home on the morning of Sunday, September 6, 2009, leaving a note saying he would be gone for the weekend. His father last saw him the day before at their home. Gagich is described as a white male, six feet tall, about 201 pounds, with a heavy build, short receding brown hair, hazel eyes, a moustache and sideburns.
When he did not return, concern grew. On the evening of Tuesday, September 8, 2009, a passing airplane spotted a fire on Emmett Lake Road in St. Edmund’s Township; responders found a vehicle completely engulfed and destroyed, later identified as Gagich’s. Investigators also traced a possible sighting at the Tobermory Ferry Terminal on the morning of Wednesday, September 9, 2009, though it is unconfirmed whether he bought a ticket or boarded the MS Chi Cheemaun.
His disappearance remains open and unresolved. Did anyone see Michel Steve Gagich at or near the Tobermory terminal on September 9, 2009, or recall details about his movements that weekend?
