Lynn Tasman Jones was 69 when he was last seen in his home suburb of Waverley about 6.30pm on Wednesday June 10, 2009.
His white 1991 Toyota Camry wagon – with NSW registration AQ-72-UY – was reportedly seen parked on Windmill Street, Millers Point, about 10am the following day.
The vehicle has never been recovered by police.
On October 7 last year, bushwalkers located skeletal remains in the Royal National Park on Lady Wakehurst Drive at Otford and contacted police.
Wollongong police attended the scene and took the bones for analysis.
Following further forensic examination, the remains were identified as those of Lynn Tasman Jones.
Investigations into the circumstances surrounding Mr Jones’s death are continuing and detectives have renewed their appeal for anyone who may have seen his Toyota Camry on June 11, 2009, or has any information that could assist police to come forward.
