QUEEN CREEK, AZ (AZFamily) — A Valley man who lost his sister earlier this year now says her remains are also lost after he shipped them through the United States Postal Service.

At the end of April, Bob Severson mailed out packages with precious items, including his sister Joie Severson’s remains.

One of the packages was sent to their nephew, one to their sister, and the last to a man in northern Wisconsin with whom his sister had recently reconnected.

“We decided while she was still living that Gordy’s going to have 40 acres up there, and he’s going to be buried on his land, and she’s going to be buried with him,” said Bob.

A week and a half later, after Bob had mailed out the packages, he said Gordy had contacted him, saying he had never received Joie’s remains.

“Three packages, two of them made it, and the most important one didn’t,” said Bob.

A USPS spokesperson says an initial review suggests the urn separated from the box at some point from the initial drop-off in Arizona to the final destination in Wisconsin.
