A Walnut Creek mother who had been missing since taking a road trip to Joshua Tree National Park back in June has been found dead, according to her brother in a Facebook post.
Colin Lloyd said that human remains discovered by hikers on Jan. 31 near Danby and Amboy roads in Wonder Valley, Calif. in San Bernardino County have been identified as belonging to his sister, Erika Lloyd. The identity of the remains has been confirmed by the San Bernardino Sheriff's Office, according to KTVU.
"Close to 8 months have passed since Erika disappeared and we have been blessed by countless efforts of selflessness and compassion on part of the community and our family," Colin Lloyd wrote. "We would like to thank the men and women of the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department, to include their families, all the men and women who performed searches in the desert, Doug Billing’s and his friends who assisted in the search, the residents of 29 Palms and Wonder Valley, and all our family and friends who have been our rock throughout this difficult time. You have all been nothing short of a miracle for us."
Erika Lloyd, 37, drove from Walnut Creek to Joshua Tree on June 14 for a vacation, according to her family. Her family lost contact with her on June 16, the same day the California Highway Patrol found her black Honda Accord off Highway 62 and Shelton Road near the city of Twentynine Palms, Calif. The car was abandoned and vandalized.
Joshua Tree park ranger Nathan Lewis told KESQ in early July that the front and back windshield of Lloyd's car were broken, but the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department found no signs of foul play at the scene.
The cause of death has not yet been determined.
