A distraught father has appealed for anyone to come forward with information about his daughter who vanished almost 20 years ago.
The man has recalled the frustration and horror of learning that his daughter, Jennifer Kesse, had vanished.
Speaking about the last time he spoke to his daughter way back in 2006, Drew Kesse explained everything seemed normal enough.

The then 24-year-old woman had just gotten back a weekend vacation with her boyfriend Rob and his family and returned home to Florida.
She had told her friends and family about how much of a lovely time she had but things took a turn when her parents struggled to get in contact with her.
Speaking to the Mail Online, about how he and his wife, Joyce, responded, he said: ”Since she was 15 and we gave her a phone and a car that was the first time she never answered and it went straight to voicemail. We immediately knew right then that something was wrong. We took off for Orlando immediately.”

It was January 24, 2006, the morning after those final phone calls to her loved ones, and Jennifer had failed to show up to her job as a finance manager at Central Florida Investments Timeshare Company.
Inside Jennifer’s home everything appeared normal, and it looked like she had gotten ready for her day and left for work.
Her parents called the police and filed a missing person report and began organizing a desperate search for Jennifer.
Two days later, Jennifer's car was found abandoned around one mile away at a different condo complex at Huntington on the Green. There was no sign of Jennifer or her belongings like her phone purse, Ipod or keys.

Grainy surveillance footage from the complex had captured an individual parking her car there and walking off at around 12pm on the day Jennifer went missing.
A team at NASA was brought in to help, in hopes they could enhance the image enough to give a clear view of the person of interest.
Unfortunately, despite their efforts, it proved unfruitful due to their face being obscured by fencing. The person of interest is described as being around 5 foot 3 to 5 foot 5 tall with unusually large feet for his height and dressed in workman's clothes.

Jennifer’s father hopes that someone somewhere knows something about his daughter’s disappearance and speaks to the police.
He said: “After 19 years, it's just unfathomable that we don't even have any direction.
"Someone must know who that is [in the footage]. Someone has to know. If you know that person, you would look at that and know who that is. You can look at a picture and go 'oh yeah, that's my cousin, that's my son.
“If you know anything about Jennifer please just go to a lawyer, go to the police if you feel comfortable, or go to a priest if you feel comfortable doing that.”
