56-year-old Thomas Gigler was sailing aboard the Carnival Panorama with his wife, Michelle, and their three sons when he disappeared during the ship’s journey back to California from Mexico.
The family had been marking their 15th wedding anniversary, making the tragedy especially difficult to understand for those who knew him.
Now, new details have raised another unanswered question in a case that has already left his loved ones searching for an explanation, as his body has still not been recovered nearly a week after his disappearance.
