A Virginia father's remains were found on Thursday in a heavily wooded area three days after his car slid into a ditch during Monday's winter storm, prompting him to try to make the six-mile trek home in the snow to be with his 2-year-old son.
That's the last communication that Whaley had with his family, who immediately reported him missing to multiple law enforcement agencies.
