For Williams' wife, Diana, and two teenage daughters, Tonee and Sara, along with law enforcement and countless friends, there are many •unan- swered questions relating to his disappearance: When his fami- ly began to look for him, it was discovered that his shop was unsecured and tools were left o The door of a car that he h en working on was left open. By all appearances, when Williams left on Thursday evening, he was planning to be gone only a short period of time. "He left his checkbook," Diana explains, "I know he only had about $75 in cash on him Wednesday night, and that would have dwindled down throughout the day."
