Details of Disappearance:
Jamison vanished from Burlington, Iowa on October 5, 1987. A mail carrier saw him get into a taxi with luggage near his home. He’d told friends he was going to Chicago.

His disappearance was very unusual; he left behind treasured family items. He had some credit card debt. His only money came from Social Security, paid directly into his bank account, which he never touched after he disappeared.

His wife had died 18 months earlier, but his stepson visited often. The stepson found Jamison gone – his mobile home was sold, and he’d vanished without a trace. Police don’t think anyone harmed him.

In 1995, a body found in Florida might have been him, but they couldn’t be sure. The mystery of what happened to Jamison remains unsolved.
