On May 14, 2015, 51-year-old William 'Bill' Edward Garside was last seen in Stringtown, Oklahoma. He is a White and American Indian male, stands at approximately 6'1' to 6'2' tall, and weighs around 240 pounds. He has brown hair, which he kept short or shaved, and brown eyes. Garside is an enrolled member of the Chickasaw Nation.
He has several distinctive tattoos, including the name 'Sharlee' on the left side of his neck, a rooster with a sunset on his chest, and tattoo sleeves on both arms from his shoulders to his wrists. He also has a tattoo of the Tasmanian Devil with guns on his left calf. He was known to sometimes have a mustache or a small goatee and wears reading glasses.
Garside was last seen leaving his home after an argument with his wife. He was wearing blue jeans, a t-shirt or tank top, a ball cap, and brown work boots. He also had a watch on his right wrist and was carrying his camouflage-patterned velcro wallet which contained his driver's license, tribal cards, casino cards, a VersaTel ATM card, and cash. He left his residence driving his 2006 maroon Lincoln Mark-LT pickup truck with Oklahoma license plate number 826JVH. His family has not had any contact with him since the day he disappeared.
