Douglas Edward Meer
Meer was resided in Boulder, Colorado in 1983. He was a student at the University of Colorado and an employee of King Soopers at the time. He inherited money from a relative in 1983, paid several months rent in advance, made several advance payments on his late-model Datsun truck, and went on vacation to Las Vegas.
Meer called family just after Easter in April 1983. He said he was on his way to Los Angeles, California, and asked his mother to wire money to the Mexican state of Baja California. He received the money through Western Union. His loved ones have not heard from him since.
In June 1983, his vehicle was found in an impound lot in Ensenada, Mexico, fifty miles from the California border. All of Meer's possessions, including a full bottle of his medication, were inside the vehicle. Meer and his dog, Pepper, were missing, but food for the dog was in the truck.
Seven years after his disappearance, Meer was declared legally dead. His remains have never been found and the circumstances surrounding his disappearance are unclear.

Pettem: Man’s unsolved disappearance eerily similar to earlier tragedy – Boulder Daily Camera
In April 1982, University of Colorado student and King Soopers employee Douglas E. Meer disappeared from Boulder. The last his family heard, he was in Las Vegas. The missing person case is hauntingly similar to that of CU professor Nicholas Schrock, except that Schrock`s body eventually was found. There has been no sign of Meer, dead or alive.
The family of Meer, however, has been waiting for nearly 25 years for even a shred of information. Now, nephew Brian Meer has taken up the search for his long-lost uncle. The Meer family doesn`t even know if Douglas was in the truck when it crossed into Mexico, or if something happened to him in Las Vegas. They need closure, too.
