So, for his daughter to even mention suicide seems telling. Was he known to have been depressed, financially struggling or terminally ill, etc.? It seems unlikely he ran off to start a new life, but hard to say with so little information, i.e. were any items missing from his home that he typically wouldn't take to work? For foul play, any known enemies or problems?

You're absolutely right, my friend. Most likely he committed suicide...
whatever the case,
rest in peace

I sent in records requests but they were denied. Same story when I talked to the detective about it. Unfortunately the only thing I can say is that if he was going to work, he would likely be in the stretch of the Delaware between the SS United States and Cherry Street Pier. Atleast by my research.

And if suicide or murder I would think that would be one of the greatest likely hoods.
