Robert Frank Urton, Sr. disappeared from Lakeside, AZ in Jun'97. Google Maps calculates this as about 3 hours away from Apache Junction. The Circumstances section reads "Robert was possibly last seen in Springerville, AZ near the Apache Reservation. Robert was expected to attend a family function on June 29, 1997 but did not show".

Height, hair, mustache, beard, and visual similarities all seem similar enough to warrant a comparison, imo. Age is off just a bit considering Robert would have been 53 in 2001 and he would have lost about 55-65 pounds over the course of the four years living as a transient in the desert, if these are his remains. The shovel-shaped incisors described on the Doe Network's profile fits with Robert's Am. Indian/Alaska Native ethnicity if Wikipedia's article on shovel-shaped incisors is correct.

Two of the photos of Robert show multiple tattoos which are described in the profile as "Both arm's sleeved, and various tattoos on chest and back." In the photo that shows him holding a dinner plate, there appears to be a tattoo on his left hand between the thumb and index finger. The image is too far away for me to make out whether it's the letter "F". Is it possible parts of his body were too damaged/decomposed after only four days for the ME to see all the other tatts on his arms, chest and back?
