Would not surprise me if all of these recent additions to NAMUS were Bundy victims.

Another Utah MP; she is from Moab UT in 1961. Cannot really see her teeth all that well. Her name is Dennise Sullivan, aged 15. The story of how she disappeared should probably be taken with a grain of salt.

She has been identified!

She is Theresa Greaves

Officials said the bones found near the roadway on Feb. 5 are those of 23-year-old Theresa Rose Greaves of Woods Cross.

After weeks of what officials said was similar to an “archaeological dig,” deputies have confirmed the remains to be those of Greaves who has been missing for 32 years.

Just an FYI in hindsight...you can still get amalgam fillings, and they're considered to be more stable than composite. I had all of my amalgams replaced per the recommendation of a dentist. Now I'm having problems with one of them. I've read recently where people have had composites removed and the amalgams put back in place.

Rest in Peace Theresa.

She seems to have no living relatives to inform

ETA: It's worth mentioning that a man named Douglas Lovell is on trial for the murder of Joyce Yost and it's supposed to start on Monday. Lovell is also suspected in Theresa's murder. I wonder how the discovery of her remains is going to affect the trial?

Here is another article. There are two agencies now investigating her death as a homicide. I am very hopeful that justice will come for her now that she has been found. This link also shows you the press conference video.

The Utah host of a genealogy-themed radio show has helped local detectives contact family members of a woman whose remains were found recently in Davis County after she went missing decades ago.

Fruit Heights resident Scott Fisher is the host of the syndicated genealogy radio show "Extreme Genes." He helped locate high school classmates in New Jersey of Theresa Rose Greaves, who disappeared in August 1983.

Fisher says using Facebook and a school administrator, he found a classmate who helped him get in touch with Greaves' relatives.

On Wednesday, authorities reached her cousin and uncle in Florida.

Greaves, a then-23-year-old, was living with a friend from Voorhees in a mobile park home in Wood Cross, Utah, Philly.com reports. She left for a job interview in Salt Lake City and phoned her roommate from the city, the report says. But she never returned home.

A convicted murderer Douglas Lovell, who is currently jailed, was questioned in 1993 on Greaves disappearance as well as another missing woman case from 1985, the report says.

"I thought, 'oh my God, is this real?'" said her cousin Cathy Greaves Spurgeon, whose father, Joseph Greaves, is Theresa's uncle. "It's still sinking in," Spurgeon said from her home in Brooksville, Fla. "I never thought they would find her. Never in a million years."

"I'm grateful to everybody for what they've done," said Spurgeon, who described her late cousin as a "sweet and very kind and down to earth" person who loved music.

Funds raised online to bring Greaves back to South Jersey for interment instead will be used to endow a Collingswood High School scholarship in her name.

Family speaks after remains of woman missing since 1983 found in Davis County
6:26 PM, APRIL 5, 2015

Cathy Greaves Spurgeon, Theresa’s cousin, spoke to FOX 13 News remotely and said after 32 years it’s good to be getting some answers.

It’s been nearly four decades since she last saw her cousin Theresa, and she said the two grew up in New Jersey together.

“Her grandmother is the one who raised her, and we hung out all of the time, we were little–we’d trade the posters from our Tiger Beat magazines, we’d listen to music, we used to have so much fun together,” she said.

I read this story on Yahoo this morning. Well done!!

Greaves' family raised enough money for a burial plot, but they did not have enough money to transport her remains from Utah back to New Jersey.

On Wednesday, it was announced that an anonymous donor had stepped forward to cover the approximately $130 transportation fee.

The investigation into Greaves' disappearance and death continued Wednesday.

33-year-old cold case still under investigation by Davis Sheriff's Office

http://www.standard.net/News/2016/03/29/33-year-old-cold-case-still-under-investigation

It’s been more than a year since the remains of Theresa Greaves were identified.

But the Davis County Sheriff’s Office has continued to work on the 33-year-old cold case in hopes of bringing the person who caused her death in 1983 to justice, said Sgt. DeeAnn Servey on Tuesday, March 29.

Some of the DNA collected from the scene has been returned to the sheriff’s office and that DNA is not Greaves, Servey said. Now detectives are waiting to find out if the DNA is linked to anyone who is in the system.
