Description

Clothing: A blue, cotton denim-type, western style jacket bearing a label on
the posterior inside surface below the collar inscribed "Lee M.R.
Made in USA". A separate label is present to the left of the first, inscribed with the letters "FR". The jacket bears five midline silvery metal and pearly gray snap-type buttons, all of which are open. Two anterior pockets are present, one on each side of the jacket, having western style flaps bearing silvery metal and pearly gray snap-type buttons which are open

On the Body
Clothing: A bright red, with yellow, blue, and green floral print, pullover style, cotton-like top. The top bears a label on the posterior
inside surface below the collar inscribed "Topson Downs of
California, Inc., Lot 2004, Style A6501, Large, See Reverse Side".
Extending inferiorly from the collar anteriorly is a V-type neck bearing two buttonholes on the right side. On the left side, correspondingly, are frayed areas resembling button attachments. No buttons are present. The sleeves are short, and bow-like ties are on both sleeves.

Clothing: A pair of navy-blue, cotton, polyester-like pants with a stretch waistband. At the waistband on one aspect is a blue strip looping around a blue, plastic-like button. On the seam opposite this loop, on the inside surface, is a white label inscribed "100% Poly, Machine Wash Warm, Tumble Dry Medium, AM48485H4, Size 15/16". Both pant legs have greater than one hundred splotch-like, irregular shaped gray-brown stains scattered over all surfaces. A semi-translucent, white plastic-like tag is present on the outside surface of the left lateral aspect of the pants on the interior border of the waistband.

Footwear: A pair of white, cotton terry-type socks with green and yellow stripes at the top

Footwear: A pair of brovn, leather-like shoes with tan-brown, rubber-like
soles and brown, cloth-like shoe laces. The shoes are moderately worn. The heel-sole of the right shoe bears a circular raisea stamp which reads "Made in Rumania".

Am I misunderstanding something here? Remains were nearly skeletal, but the weight of 135 pounds was "measured"?

I assume they were measuring based on her clothing sizes. Not a great idea, IMO. Women's clothing sizing is not super standardized.

I wonder if this is a good idea of what her jacket looked like?
