Theresa DeKeyzer's body was found in September in a drum at a storage site in Plymouth Township. The 22-year-old woman lived 33 miles away in Warren and hadn't been seen for much of the summer.

"She was a very loving, positive, caring person. We miss her. We are just not whole without her," said Theresa DeKeyzer's sister, Leah.
