Sharon Shari Apgar was residing at her mother's home in Newtonsville, Ohio in 1999. She was last seen by friends at a hotel in Fort Mitchell, Kentucky on November 18, 1999.
Sharon or Shari Apgar was wearing a long-sleeved hunter green blouse, jeans and black combat boots at the time. She was possibly wearing several rings on her fingers as well. Apgar departed from the hotel and has never been heard from again. She may have left the building with the intention of meeting someone. She left her son behind when she vanished.
Sharon or Shari Apgar may have left to meet her ex-husband, Mike George. He disappeared at the same time she did. An anonymous caller to authorities placed Apgar in a motel in northern Kentucky, but when police went there they found no motel at the location described in the call. Apgar's family believes George may have been involved in her disappearance, but law enforcement authorities have not identified him as a suspect. They would like to speak with him, however. Police say there is no evidence of foul play in Apgar's disappearance, but her family says she was afraid for her life prior to her disappearance.
Photographs of George are unavailable, but he is described as a brown-haired, blue-eyed man who was 36 years old at the time of his and Apgar's disappearance. He is 5'9 tall and weighs 170 pounds. Both his and Apgar's cases are unsolved.
A note
from a close friend about Shari Apgar
Shari moved to Florida from Ohio in the early 90's to get away from a life of self destruction. Her husband had recently been put in jail and she took the opportunity to take her son and start clean and fresh. She done just that. We accidently met through mutual friends and we quickly became best friends.
She did exactly what she had set out to do. She left behind the life of drugs, alcohol and self destructive habits. She became a better mother, held a good job and was an emaculate house keeper. She lit up the room everywhere she went and always carried a smile.
About three years later her husband was released from jail and moved to Florida to be with his wife and step son. He claimed to be a "changed" man. He was an active member of a motor cycle club and soon missed his friends up north. He moved the family back to Ohio and soon returned to his old ways.
Shari and I still kept in touch but the time span between letters and phone calls became longer. She wanted to go back to a "cleaner" way of living and fought hard to get back again. She got a divorce but couldn't seem to shake her ex-husband off. The last time I spoke with her she was desperate to get away from him. She was going to move back closer with her mom and promised to call me when she got situated. But the call never came. About 6 months later her step father was down here in Florida. He ran into a mutal friend and told them Shari was missing. That friend called me and I have been looking ever since. Once I seen her face among the missing on a wall in Wall-Mart. I still call her my best friend and honestly I haven't had one since.
I like to think she is in a witness protection program and she is somewhere on a beach in the Carribean, sipping drinks with little umbrellas.
