Family of missing woman to hold vigil after human remains found in Maple Ridge

The family of a woman from Maple Ridge who was reported missing in July will gather at her home for a vigil Sunday night, a week after human remains were found in the house.

Homicide investigators still haven’t confirmed the identity of the remains, but the partner of 43-year-old Jessica Cunningham has been arrested and charged with indignity to human remains.

Cunningham’s friend Kristin Rasko says all her loved ones have been sick with worry and sadness over the news, particularly because they don’t even know if the remains belong to her.
