Geoffrey Russell Irwin was 35 when he was last seen leaving his family home in Colwood, British Columbia, on September 27, 2020. Later that day he was recorded on surveillance at a Royal Bank of Canada on Jacklin Road. At the time he was described as a Caucasian man, blond hair, blue eyes, 6 feet tall, about 200 pounds, wearing a grey zip-up hoodie over a black t-shirt, black shorts and carrying a backpack.

A missing person report was filed with the West Shore RCMP at the end of October after family concern grew. Investigators learned he sometimes travelled between the West Shore of Vancouver Island and the Lower Mainland and believe he may have been in West Vancouver between September 27 and 29. On November 25, 2020 his black 2017 Ford Escape was found abandoned near Park Royal Mall in West Vancouver.

Police have said they do not suspect foul play but remain concerned for his welfare; the West Shore RCMP Serious Crime Unit continues to handle the active investigation. If anyone saw Geoffrey, his vehicle, or has dashcam footage from the Park Royal Mall area or BC Ferries crossings around September 27–29, please come forward with information.
