A grandmother who went missing on holiday on a Greek island three weeks ago has been found dead in a remote area.<\/p>\n

Susan Hart, 74, from Bath, went missing on Sunday April 30 after taking a ferry from Kalymnos to the remote island of Telendos with her husband, Ed.<\/p>\n

She planned to wait at the front of the island while her partner went off rock climbing with a friend. When they returned, she had disappeared without a trace.<\/p>\n

\"Susan<\/p>\n

For more than two weeks, the family from Bath were joined by officials and volunteers in an extensive search of the island.<\/p>\n

Her daughter Ruth Landale has now confirmed she was identified by her stepfather, and the family are left ‘heartbroken’.<\/p>\n

Her body will be\u00a0repatriated to Switzerland, where she was living, after a\u00a0port-mortem is carried out by Greek authorities.<\/p>\n

\"Susan<\/p>\n

Susan Hart was a former employee of the World Health Organisation.<\/p>\n

She was living with her husband, Ed, in his native Switzerland.<\/p>\n

According to The Mirror, the couple had been regularly visiting the larger island of Kalymnos for around the last eight years.<\/p>\n

Telendos is a smaller island about 0.6 miles (1 kilometre) off the coast of Kalymnos, and an administrative part of the larger body.<\/p>\n

The tiny island is shaped like a semi-circle. There is a single, steep, flat-top mountain whose sides drop directly down the sea. The only settlement is based at the southern tip of the island, where the land is flat.<\/p>\n

After making the ten-minute ferry trip from Kalymnos, Susan Hart planned to read a while before heading over to a local restaurant while her husband went climbing.<\/p>\n

She reportedly decided to sit out due to health problems, according to\u00a0The Sun.<\/p>\n

But when Ed returned, Susan had vanished – and nobody in the restaurant had seen her.<\/p>\n

Her three daughters Bethan, Ella, 43, from London, and Ruth, 45, who was in Australia, kept up the search for her mother following her mysterious disappearance.<\/p>\n

Previously speaking to\u00a0The Mirror, Bethan said: ‘How does someone just disappear without a trace? The hopes of finding her alive are diminishing by the day and my sisters and I do not know what to do next.’<\/p>\n

Susan’s husband paid privately for search and rescue dogs to join the search after local police failed to make arrangements after eight days of looking.<\/p>\n

Ruth wrote on Facebook on Saturday: ‘Someone, somewhere must have seen something. People don’t just vanish with no trace in such a small community.<\/p>\n

‘Mum has dementia and is very vulnerable. We need to find her. Please help us.’<\/p>\n

Bethan also\u00a0said\u00a0<\/a>she worries that her mother was suffering from memory loss before her disappearance, though said she had not had a formal dementia diagnosis.<\/p>\n

After battling for access to CCTV footage of Susan walking away from the restaurant, the family is now desperately trying to access video from the other side.<\/p>\n

They said at the time that footage from behind the restaurant might help ‘settle\u00a0something playing on our minds’, that Susan took the ferry back to Kalymnos.<\/p>\n

Bethan disputed previous reports that Susan had been found dead at the bottom of a cliff.<\/p>\n

A flyer shared by the family described Susan as having short dyed brown hair and blue eyes.<\/p>\n

She was said to be wearing a brown hat, grey Bermuda shorts, a light brown cardigan, a grey short-sleeved top, grey hiking boots, a grey sweatshirt and her wedding ring on the day she went missing.<\/p>\n

Susan is mother to three and grandmother to four children.<\/p>\n

Anybody with further information can contact the Greek Silver Alert Service at SOS 1065 or the British Vice Consulate at +30 22410 22005.<\/p>\n

The Foreign Office said:\u00a0‘We are providing consular assistance to the family of a British woman who has been reported missing in Greece and are in contact with the local authorities.’<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
