Here is the podcast episode I did which features a discussion of Joanne's case:

''Human remains were found in a 1937 Dodge found west of the Greenfield bridge in
the Rouge River. The river was being drained at the time of the discovery. 1957
licence plates were found with the vehicle."
The distance between Dearborn Heights and Greenfield Bridge is around seven miles, and the vehicle was recovered around a year after Joanne disappeared.

This was my thought 100%Philip said he "couldn't remember" the exact date that he last saw Joanne...anyone think that's a little weird? This is the man's wife, supposedly coming to pack up and leave the marriage permanently! You would imagine that sort of thing would be emblazoned on a person's mind.

That page wouldn't load for me; maybe the remains have been identified.''Human remains were found in a 1937 Dodge found west of the Greenfield bridge in

I bought her car from Phillip after she disappeared. 1969 white Beetle. The Dearborn Heights police came to our house to inspect it but found nothing. I believe Phillip and her lived in the 7 mile Lahser area. I worked for Phillip for around 5 or so years when he had the Warren Valley Golf Course restaurant concession. I was in high school then.
Police Report

In answer to the question 'what became of the husband'? He moved to Tucson at some point. Ancestry shows he became a naturalised US citizen in Michigan in 1965, changing his name from Philip Selim Garboushian to Philip Garr. In 1992 he was living in Tucson, with the identification confirmed by the same birthdate of 22 September 1925 (although the marriage certificate says 1926). He died in Arizona on 25 May 1997. An article from the Tucson Daily Citizen at Tucson Daily Citizen from Tucson, Arizona on December 23, 1975 · Page 7 shows him in Tucson in 1975 and gives his occupation as a chef.
Is Phillip still living? Anyone know where he resides?
