Theodore John Piekarz was last seen on October 1, 1986, at the train station in Kirkland Lake, Ontario. He was 36 then and said he intended to travel to British Columbia. Reports note he had brown hair, a medium build, a mole on the right side of his nose and cigarette-burn scars on both forearms.

His disappearance timeline is complicated: a missing person report was filed in 1978, but details about that initial report and what happened between 1978 and 1986 are not known.

Anyone who knew Theodore, saw him in Kirkland Lake in 1986, or has information about his whereabouts is asked to come forward.
