I've been going over the details of Donald Edward Smith's disappearance, and one thing that's really stuck with me is his arthritis and how it might have affected his movements. Considering he had significant mobility challenges, it's puzzling to think about how far he could have gone on his own from the Whirlpool Bridge. Has anyone looked into whether he had any help or if someone might have seen him struggling? The fact that he was known to be in emotional distress just heightens the uncertainty here. It makes me wonder if there's any way to find local people who might remember seeing him back in 1986 or if there are other regional cases that might match up. Even just a passing comment from a local who might remember seeing something unusual could be vital. Maybe there are untapped community resources or historical records of the area around that bridge that could be of help?
