A sad closure for family and friends.

 

The family of John Merasty say they have found the remainds of the 88 year-old. 

 

The Leaf Rapids man hadn't been seen since August 7th.

 

Family thought he went to The Pas for a wedding but after he wasn't seen or heard from for weeks, a search was prompted. 

 

Sherman Merasty says he and 8 others discovered his grandfather when they went out searching for him this morning. 

 

A crowd funding page set up to fund the search efforts will now be going towards funeral services. 

 

The family is thanking everyone who helped with the search efforts.
