I don't know if these are the remains of your loved one or not. But I saw this post on Facebook and thought I would help if I could. Mr. Robinson appears to live in Maine. I have messaged him but not received any reply. If these are your loved ones remains I pray you get them back. You can reach me at

Mr Briggs I did not know you but a post on Facebook came across my timeline today that lead me here. I know your journey has been very long but thankfully you have been reunited with your family.
