Tharp's BMW is found parked in the presidio in San Francisco
By Lisa Toth
Rick Tharp, a renowned graphic designer who worked in the Los Gatos community for about 30 years, is still missing as of press time. His black BMW was recently found by authorities in the Presidio of San Francisco, near the approach to the Golden Gate Bridge, according to J.C. Olson, Tharp's longtime friend.

There are reports that Tharp may have ended his life by jumping off the bridge on June 4. A credible witness saw someone matching Tharp's description make the jump. However, until a death warrant is officially issued, his family and friends have put a hold on planning a memorial service.
