A memorial service was held by the family on Saturday to honor and pray for Trejo.
"It's not fair. If anything did happen to my mom, she didn't deserve it. She was a loving person," Trejo's daughter, Yvonne Rodriguez Escobedo said. "She's still supposed to be here, she's not supposed to be gone, but I know she is resting and at ease."
There has been no word on when the medical examiner will identify the body found.
