Bumping for Donald - this summer will be 29 years.

Bumping up for Donald. It seems he returned home from his bike ride, and then what could have happened?

Did he leave on foot and have a medical episode or misadventure somewhere he just hasn't been found? Is there any such place in walking distance to his home, such as a river?

But the door was unlocked, so was he harmed in his apartment or lured outside by someone, and if so, why? Why would anyone want to hurt this man?

I feel for his family. It is tragic that so much time has passed without answers.

I have the impression that robbery was not the motive... I think they were looking for something else... information... maybe they knew something that could be revealed and it shouldn't be...
either way
rest in peace
