Walker Bruce, known as Popeye, was 64 when he disappeared from his Nashville, Tennessee, home in the winter of 1980. His daughter saw him at 1110 W. Trinity Lane about 2:30 PM on January 21. When she returned the next morning around 10:30 AM, the front door was open and Walker was gone. He was described as a white male, 6 feet tall, about 190 pounds, with graying hair and blue eyes, last seen wearing a grey work shirt and pants.

The Metropolitan Nashville Police Department handled the initial investigation. The open, unattended house suggested his departure was not planned, but public details about the early search or any leads are sparse. The case has remained unresolved for decades and many original records or specifics from that period are not readily available.

If anyone knew Walker, lived near 1110 W. Trinity Lane in January 1980, or has information about his whereabouts, please share what you know.
