Family exhumes grandma who was buried 10 years ago

After nearly a decade, a family in the Dominican Republic decided to exhum their grandmother, Margarita Rosario, from La Colonia Cemetery in Jarabacoa. According to relatives who spoke to Jam Press, despite the lengthy burial, they were surprised to find that she still had a full head of hair, some skin, and enough bones to stand with little support.

The family did not provide a reason for the exhumation.
