The family of Charles and Catherine Romer confirmed that the remains found inside a 1979 Lincoln Continental are those of the missing couple.

"We are deeply saddened and equally relieved that our grandparents Charles and Catherine Romer 's 44-year mystery disappearance has been solved. While this discovery brings closure, it still has been very emotional. Sadly, Charles Romer Jr, Jim Romer and Frank Heller are not with us to share this momentous turn of events and to know their parents will finally be laid to rest in peace.

"All the investigations and psychics and everything, the police, they worked so hard, and Blackwater divers have been searching for years. And they thought it was foul play," said Christine Seaman Heller, granddaughter of the missing woman. Last Friday, a team of divers found the rusting, deteriorating remains of a 1979 Lincoln Continental, the vehicle Seaman Heller's grandmother Catherine and her husband Charles, an oil company executive, were in when they vanished.

"The rust, corrosion, all kinds of bacteria is gonna develop on that car. And in trying to clean that stuff to see if you can find something...it's going to be difficult," Ken Jefferson, a crime and safety expert, said.
