Remains of missing woman located near Invermere
Columbia Valley RCMP November 9 (2021) received a report of the discovery of human remains on the bank of Toby Creek near Invermere.
The RCMP worked closely with the BC Coroners Service to identify the individual. Sadly, on December 4, it was confirmed, the remains were that of a 77-year-old woman who had been reported missing from Invermere in 2019.
“Officers from the Columbia Valley RCMP have been in contact with the woman’s family and provided them with this update,” stated Cpl. Louis-Philippe Gendron-Fafard. “Our thoughts are with them as they grieve her loss. They have asked for privacy during this difficult time.”
RCMP does not believe that criminality was involved in the woman’s death.
The BC Coroners Service is continuing a concurrent, fact-finding investigation to determine how, where, when and by what means she died.
