The body of a woman who was in a tow truck that plummeted into the Sacramento River last month was recovered Sunday, family members and the California Highway Patrol said. Roselyn Sharma’s body was found inside the tow truck, which was recovered at about 9:30 a.m. Members of a dive team spent much of Saturday morning and afternoon moving in and out of the water as they worked to connect the tow truck to a crane sitting on a barge. Divers connected the last wires Sunday morning, before removing the truck. The body of Roselyn Sharma’s husband, Shalvinesh Sharma, was found Thursday around 8:45 a.m. in the Sacramento River south of Stan's Yolo Marina, which is toward the West Sacramento side of the river, authorities said."I'm happy we got some type of closure, but I'm still sad," said Justin Sharma, son of Roselyn and Shalvinesh Sharma. The couple's truck plunged into the Sacramento River from the Pioneer Bridge after colliding with a big rig March 26. The recovery effort was slow to finalize as the CHP and family worked out who would pay. The family said their insurance company is covering the more $500,000 cost. "I hope that what our family is going through nobody else will go through the same situation," said Donald Singh, Roselyn's brother. "It's been 20 days, and we're just happy that we can come to some kind of closure," said Roselyn's cousin, Poonam Nair.
