"It was February fourth around 4 pm and her place of work actually called my mother, as she's listed as her emergency contact, and said she hasn't been to work in over a week," said Seymour.

Williamson is an insurance agent very passionate about her work. So, the call got her family's attention.

"Then we went on to call the apartment complex to check and see if she was there. They went to check, and she was not," said Seymour.
