Apparently he was working as a logger and lost the eye in a work related accident, but we don't know anything else, even when it happened.

"WHEN" is the big question.

My best friend Jeff was a logger in the area around that time. It's a long shot, But I will ask him if this man sounds familiar.

I hope someone is doing DNA on this guy. I wondered about him and wondered about him.
