A body found in the Waikato River last week has been identified as that of a man who was reported missing in May.
Police have confirmed that the body is that of John Emanuel Comer.
The 34-year-old was last seen by his flatmates at his Memorial Drive home in Hamilton at 8.30am on Tuesday, May 22.
On July 19, a fisherman notified police after discovering the body while out angling on the Waikato River.
Police say there is nothing suspicious about John's.
His death has been referred to the Coroner.

How dreadfully sad......

I read the article, like so very many similar articles (and much worse of course) and I almost just 'moved on' as we all do these days with such stories being an everyday occurrence. But then, I just thought, how terribly sad for this man. What a sad, cold, lonely way to die. I am at least comforted that via my spiritual beliefs I know that moments after his last breath he will have found himself back again in the most STUNNINGLY FABULOUS place. Enjoy your return home John.
