Albert Carol Difonzo Jr., 61, was last known to be in the Timber, Oregon area on December 13, 2022. He lived a transient, largely solitary life, camping and living in the woods out of his van, so his absence was not noticed right away. He was reported missing to the Washington County Sheriff’s Office on February 15, 2023.

Deputies located his camp and both vehicles, and his belongings were found abandoned, but there was no sign of Albert. The Oregon State Police continue to list him as a missing person and the investigation remains open. What happened to him after December 13, 2022, is unknown.

If anyone was in the Timber area that December or has information about Albert’s movements or where he might have gone, please share what you know with authorities.
