    Seal, once the body is identified and the family notified, we have been told by NC Wildlife Resources that they will release the identity to the public.

    Mark that is exactly what I was hoping !!!
    To bring closure to this terrible thing that has happened to this family !!!
    And I did not say “This was him”
    I simply pondered “Could this be him”
    and I know from local talk that I’m not alone thinking this !!!!
