The family of 68-year-old Cecile Lemay is offering a reward for the return of their mother's head, which was hacked from her body by a thief or thieves last summer. "Each morning, when we get up, we ask ourselves: 'Where is the head? Will it show up on our lawn one morning?'," the Globe and Mail newspaper quoted Lemay's sister Carmelle as saying. Information leading to the return of the missing head will earn a reward of C$10,000 ($8,900). "We think about it each day. We can't find closure and we want to know who did it and why," another of Lemay's sisters, Ghyslaine, said.
