Robert was 4 months old when he went missing in Parker, Colorado on August 11, 1985. No photos were available when he was reported missing. The photo on the left is a composite drawing of how he may have looked at age 9 and the photo on the right is a composite drawing of how he may look at age 23. Robert was originally missing with his sister, but she has since been found. He has not been heard from or seen since.
