One of his feet is one to one and a half sizes smaller than the other foot, and he has caps on his teeth.





Information on the case from local sources, may or may not be correct : Hearon called his two sons that morning on August 23, 2008 and told them he was going from his condo in Maryville, Tennessee to his hundred-acre farm in Happy Valley in Tallahassee, Tennessee to mow. There isn't any cellular phone service there and Hearon often worked outside, out of earshot of his house phone, so he always let his children know when he was going there.
Hearon went to one son's home, picked up the mower and loaded it onto his trailer. At 11:00 a.m., neighbors saw Hearon leave his home on Bell Branch Road in Tallahassee, driving his green four-wheel drive Yamaha Wolverine ATM. He waved to them as he left. He has never been heard from again.
Friends went to Hearon's farm the next day and noticed his truck was parked at the end of the road with the windows rolled down, the trailer still attached and the mower on the trailer. He normally parked his truck at the end of the road, detached the trailer and then drove closer to the house.
Hearon's parents live near his farm. They went to his house on August 24, but didn't knock on the door or go inside. The day after that, they noticed his truck still parked at the end of the road and went looking for him on the property but couldn't find him, and they noticed the lawn hadn't been mowed.
Hearon's son checked his Maryville condo and found Hearon's car and motorcycle in the garAge at the time of disappearance: and nothing out place. Hearon's keys, cellular phone, money clip, credit cards, driver's license, cash and gun were inside his truck in Tallahassee. Only one of his ATVs was missing.
Hearon's family notified police of his disappearance at this time. On August 26, the missing ATV was found abandoned and undamAge at the time of disappearance: d about a mile from his home. It was parked in high gear on a steep hill, in a location Hearon normally didn't visit. The ignition switch was left on, which is uncharacteristic of Hearon. There was no sign of him at the scene.
Hearon graduated from Lanier High School in eastern Tennessee. After high school he worked for the park service trimming trails, then founded a successful home construction business, Michael Hearon Builders, with his sons. He enjoys being outdoors and working on his farm.
Hearon's loved ones stated he was behaving normally before his disappearance and wasn't depressed or suicidal. His family stated he has no known enemies and it's uncharacteristic of him to leave without warning. His case remains unsolved.

A missing person is a person who has disappeared and whose status as alive or dead cannot be confirmed as their location and condition are not known. A person may go missing through a voluntary disappearance, or else due to an accident, crime, death in a location where they cannot be found (such as at sea), or many other reasons. In most parts of the world, a missing person will usually be found quickly. While criminal abductions are some of the most widely reported missing person cases, these account for only 2�5% of missing children in Europe. By contrast, some missing person cases remain unresolved for many years. Laws related to these cases are often complex since, in many jurisdictions, relatives and third parties may not deal with a person's assets until their death is considered proven by law and a formal death certificate issued. The situation, uncertainties, and lack of closure or a funeral resulting when a person goes missing may be extremely painful with long-lasting effects on family and friends. Several organizations seek to connect, share best practices, and disseminate information and imAge at the time of disappearance: s of missing children to improve the effectiveness of missing children investigations, including the International Commission on Missing Persons, the International Centre for Missing & Exploited Children (ICMEC), as well as national organizations, including the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children in the US, Missing People in the UK, Child Focus in Belgium, and The Smile of the Child in Greece.
