Two rusted cars - a blue 1969 Chevrolet Camaro and a a green 1957 Chevrolet - containing six bodies have been uncovered in Foss Lake, near Elk City, Oklahoma. Tim Porter and Debbie Porter McManaman said they believe the Chevrolet was the car driven by their grandfather, John Alva Porter, of Rogers Mills County, just west of Custer County, who disappeared in April 1969 at age 69. John, with a man and woman, was last seen in the early 1960s in the nearby town of Canute, where they told locals they were planning to visit Foss Lake. "I remember that green car, yes," McManaman told KFOR. It's sad. I can see his tall, lanky body walking up to the car. He always had a smile on his face. "Forty-something years of wondering who or why," Tim Porter told The Tulsa World. If it is my grandfather in there, it's a gift. Tim Porter talks to a sheriff after giving DNA at the scene. John Alva Porter's son Ervie, 89, has dementia and wasn't available to comment, his family said. But McManaman said that for years, her dad would go looking for Porter. He would "take my mom, and they'd look and look and look for any trace," she said. "I mean, he was just gone," she said. No trace at all. His money was in the bank, his house was intact and he was gone. So for over 40 years we've been looking for him. Jimmy Allen Williams and Leah Gail Johnson.

NBC station KFOR of Oklahoma City reported. The teens, who'd said they were going to a football game in Elk City, may have detoured to go hunting at Foss Lake, instead. It is speculated Williams simply drove into the lake and drowned. The news after 43 years of wondering what happened to your children has upset their families.

"I will say this, I don't believe those kids went into the water accidentally," said Spitzer. Leah was an Indian Princess and was a very good athlete, and could swim very well. And, the other two boys were really robust kids. They could have easily unrolled the windows and been able to get out. The Oklahoma State Medical Examiners Office says authorities have recovered skeletal remains of multiple bodies in the Oklahoma lake where the two decades-old cars were pulled from the water by a dive team.

It was a play-off game, and he had a friend that he wanted to go watch. Never showed up..." said Spitzer. Jimmy may have changed his mind. "He was a big turkey hunter and it would have been around that time of year that he could have been shooting," said Spitzer. Andy Taylor, a childhood friend of Jimmy, said their disappearance has never left the town. In the minds of a lot of Sayre people, it's never really left. It might not be at the forefront, but it's just kind of one of those things that's always there," he said. If the remains prove to be Jimmy's, it will be bittersweet for the family. "It's good to know that for 43 years, he's been with The Lord," said Taylor. One of the rusted cars that have been pulled out of Lake Foss in Oklahoma after being submerged for more than 40 years.
