- Details of Disappearance:
- On June 4, 2008, security cameras showed a man named Happy taking out $2,000 from his bank account at a store in Farmington, New Mexico. He seemed nervous, constantly looking around. That’s the last time anyone definitely saw him.
Some people said they saw him two days later in a different town, but that hasn’t been proven. He’s been missing ever since.
Happy lived alone in Sanostee, New Mexico. He didn’t have a car and relied on his Social Security check for money, mostly spending it on alcohol. His family helped him with food and gas. He’d worked for the Union Pacific Railroad after graduating from a boarding school in Utah, and had been retired for 20 years before he disappeared.
His family thinks someone hurt him, and he’s likely dead, but police haven’t found any evidence to prove that. The mystery of his disappearance remains unsolved.
