Dayton — Dellaina Grundy thought her father’s cremains had been interred at the Dayton National Cemetery more than 10 years ago.

On Tuesday, she found out that his remains were among containers carrying cremains of 56 people that had been found last week at foreclosed Dayton home co-owned by former funeral director Scherrie McLin.

“My mother got a call from the Montgomery County Coroner’s Office. She was told that they had found his remains in the home,” said Grundy of Jefferson Township. “He assured me that he was positive that my father was not in that grave. He had his remains in his office.”

The coroner’s office so far has contacted 20 families about loved one’s remains being found at the house at 2121 Philadelphia Drive, which is co-owned by McLin’s half sister Tanya Anderson.
