A cedar chest that went missing earlier in the week has been reunited with a Niagara family.

On Tuesday a woman asked for help finding her deceased aunt’s belongings.

The woman posted an ad on Kijiji after her aunt’s landlord threw out all of her stuff, shortly after the woman died.

50-year-old Karen Stewart died on Monday.

The family said when they went to Stewart’s Niagara Falls apartment the next day her belongings were out on the curb.

Most of them had already been taken.

They posted an online ad asking for the cedar chest to be returned.

The family contacted CHCH News on Sunday saying it was brought back that morning after a man who heard about the story got in touch with them.
