A pair of sister is in disbelief that parts of their father's body were among those stolen.

Evidence was taken from the home, but neighbors didn't learn what the situation was about until now.

"It's overwhelming," said next-door neighbor Denise Goodman."It's baffling me that somebody would do this. We're a little appalled and disappointed." "You don't do that," said neighbor Lionel Coulon."You don't take somebody's body parts and sell them. I guess money must be pretty good to do it." Meanwhile, Paula Peltonovich and he sister, Darlene Lynch, are in disbelief that parts of their father's body were among those stolen.Their parents, Nicholas and Joan Pichowicz, were police officers.
