June Goodman was 66 years old when she vanished from Snowflake, Arizona in 2003. She was a mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, widow, and a familiar face in a small town where people knew each other and where her family name carried weight.
When June disappeared, the questions left behind and the theories of what may have happened to her only grew more unsettling.
66-year-old June Goodman was last seen on the night of March 28, 2003, in Snowflake, Arizona. She is white. At that time of her disappearance, she was between 5’2-5’4, weighed approximately 130lbs. She has brown hair and green eyes and may have been wearing a light purple sweatsuit.
52-year-old Dennis Reed Wasson was last seen on December 20, 2000, in Snowflake, Arizona. He is white. At the time of his disappearance, he was 6’3” and weighed approximately 300lbs. At that time his hair was long and brown with a braid in the back with brown eyes and he had a full beard and mustache that was red with grey in it. He was last seen wearing a blue striped shirt, jeans and sandals. He also has a gunshot wound on his right side and a tattoo on his left shoulder that reads “Hoss” cursive.
Anyone with information about June or Reed is asked to call the Snowflake-Taylor Police Department at 928-536-7500.
