The mother of a missing local man has released more details about the day of his disappearance in the hopes it might lead to more information.

Dean Morrison, a 44-year-old father of three, has been missing since late October.

Elizabeth Faber wrote on the morning of Oct. 22, her son was terminated from his contract painting position at Stump Lake Ranch because he was lethargic and looked unwell, according to the statement.

Morrison’s vehicle wasn’t running properly, so a tow truck was called at 9:30 a.m. and arrived after 1 p.m.

Some time between the tow truck being called and arriving, Morrison went missing.

The statement noted Morrison had some facial sores the day of his disappearance, which could be linked to a bacterial infection he was on antibiotics for at the time.

According to the statement, Morrison and his wife had recently separated and he was also suffering from depression.

Family members became concerned when Morrison did not call or go back to his sister’s house, where he occasionally stayed on days off from his contract service position at the ranch, the statement reads. On Oct. 28, his sister reported him missing to the RCMP.

On Oct. 31, RCMP conducted an air and ground search.

RCMP investigators have not been able to establish any vehicles associated with the man.

Morrison is described as five-foot-five, 150 pounds with blue eyes and brown hair.

As of Tuesday, RCMP and the family had no calls or information about the case. Anyone with information about Morrison’s whereabouts is asked to contact RCMP at (250) 378-4262.
