Today's case is a great example of why it's so important to check in on your loved ones whenever you can. Those in Michael Shaver's life thought that they were doing just that.

But in hindsight, they realized that they could have done more. They could have called him, heard his voice, checked in to truly see how he was doing. But years passed, and by the time his loved ones realized they hadn't heard his voice in a long time, it was far, far too late.

Most of us are very busy adults who don't always have the time to call family members or check in as often as we would like, so it can be easy to let that kind of communication slip to the back burner.

but truly no matter who you are or how busy you are, try and take the time to talk to those who mean the most to you even if it's just for a few minutes every couple weeks because you never truly know what could be going on in their lives and checking in on them could be exactly what they needed. With that being said, Let's get into today's case.

Lori Shaver was married to her husband, Michael Shaver, and together they had two children. The two had been together for quite some time, meeting as teenagers in upstate New York before ultimately settling in a home in Clermont, Florida. Michael worked as an aircraft mechanic at one point. He was a pilot as well.

but just before his death, he had been working as a ride mechanic at the Epcot Center in Disney World. By 2014, Michael had moved out of the family home due to issues within the marriage, but by 2015, he moved back in, seemingly in an attempt to try and work things out with his wife.

By November 7th, 2015, Michael, Lori, and their two children met up with Michael's coworker Frank and his wife at a tractor show. There, Frank noticed that while Michael was acting relatively normally, his wife Lori seemed a bit standoffish and cold. The two clearly had some tension going on between them, so the two left the tractor show early and went home.

The following day, Frank texted Michael asking him if everything was okay, but he got no response. Frank texted Michael once again on November 9th, asking again if things were okay. This time, Frank did get a response. Michael texted him saying that he was actually quitting his job at Epcot to focus on saving his marriage.

So, by the time November 10th rolled around and Michael was scheduled to work, he didn't show up. He didn't call his boss or anyone else to notify them of his absence, which definitely was odd to those who worked with Michael. According to his boss and coworkers, Michael was a very responsible employee. He never missed a day of work without at least calling or texting someone to let them know.
