Original post:

A Rio Dell man, Thomas Uber, has been missing since Wednesday. He left his home in the morning and hasn’t returned. His granddaughter Felicia Uber said that this behavior “isn’t like him.”

Uber said her grandfather drives a white ‘91 Ford Areostar van with handicap license plate. The van has a smashed front end. “He is 70 years old and diabetic,” she wrote. “We’re worried about him out especially with this weather. Please…help us find him.”

Uber explained that her grandfather who is approximately 5‘4” and weighs 170 pounds often travels from Rio Dell to Arcata through Manila “so he can be anywhere in between.” 

Anyone who has any information about the whereabouts of Thomas Uber should contact Rio Dell Police at (707) 764-5312
