Human remains found in California last month have been confirmed to be those of Guelph's Paul Miller.

"The coroner's office was in contact with Paul's wife today to let her know that as we suspected, they have confirmed the remains are Paul," read a Tuesday afternoon update at twitter.com/findpaulmiller.

"Details regarding a memorial and celebration of Paul's life will be posted once available. It is asked that everyone continue to respect the family's privacy at this time."

Last month, authorities discovered skeletal remains at Joshua Tree National Park in California, the park where Miller went missing.
