She was identified through dental records, the coroner's office said.

Her cause and manner of death are pending, officials said.

Abosede's body was found a little over two weeks after the married mother of four disappeared while walking near her Naperville home.

She had left behind her phone and other personal belongings.

Naperville police previously said foul play is not suspected.

"Sinmi's family wishes to thank everyone in the community for the remarkable support they showed throughout the difficult times since the day she went missing. Words cannot begin to express their gratitude. They are comforted by cherished memories of Sinmi as a wonderful wife, mother, family member and friend to so many. The family is now asking for privacy as they grieve through their loss," the coroner's office said.
