On July 31, 2020, Kevin Barton, also known as Chris Lee, wasin relation to Smith’s death. She had been reported missing after not returning to her home in Chestermere, Alta., that same month.
Investigators worked to locate Smith’s remains and last October received information about a possible location. Terrain and winter weather conditions made a search “not possible,” but on May 9, officers revisited the site near a rest stop off the eastbound Trans-Canada Highway east of Banff and located the remains.“She was beautiful. She was independent. She was full of life,” said Sina Oroomchi, Smith’s son.
“At the last minute, they told us they weren’t releasing … Basically the body might not be all hers. They can’t confirm it’s all her or not,” Oroomchi told Global News. The family is hoping that the remains will be released soon so they can move through their grief and give their mother a proper farewell.“Nothing can change what happened. Nothing can bring her back,” Oroomchi said.
