Human remains found in the Grand Canyon this week were those of the last person still missing from flooding last month. 

Timothy Allen Smith, 53, was on a mulitiday hiking, fishing and camping trip with Brent Rosenkranz, 42, and John Giusti, 46, both of Granbury, Texas. The bodies of Rosenkranz and Giusti were found earlier, the Associated Press reported. 

Smith's wife, Carrie, said in a Facebook post on Thursday that the body discovered this week was that of her husband. 

"We know that these three men loved the Lord and were a shining light for Him. The impact their lives had on others is still being shown to our families daily," Carrie Smith wrote. 

The flooding began on Aug. 29 during the summer monsoon, when thunderstorms and heavy rains can quickly develop in clear skies. The rain fell on part of the North Rim that was burned in July 2025. Fires can make flash floods worse due to the lack of vegetation to absorb runoff. 

During the two-day downpour, searchers used night vision and other equipment to find people in need of rescue. They identified who was missing with the Grand Canyon National Park’s permit system and vehicle license plates. More than 80 people were rescued.
