A York Haven woman stowed her grandmothers remains in a freezer for 15 years so their family could continue to collect her Social Security, Pennsylvania State Police said.
Glenora Reckord Delahay died at her Ardmore home in March 2004, but wasnt found until state police got a report last year of human remains inside a Warrington Township home.
Delahays granddaughter Cynthia Carolyn Black told police she kept her grandmothers body because her family needed the income. She even moved the freezer from Ardmore to Dillsburg in 2007, state police said.
