Jessie Daniel Seward, 81, and his wife Jean Marie Virginia Ginny Seward, 80, were found dead in their Sidney Township home on Beaver Drive after a family member discovered them on the morning of June 26, 2024, when they failed to attend a 4-H horse show the previous day. Investigators determined both were victims of a double homicide; both had been shot and Jessie sustained a fatal gunshot wound to the head. Their date of death was determined to be June 24, 2024.

A United States Air Force veteran, Jessie moved to the Sheridan area in 1972, retired from Extruded Metals and continued working at Stanton Hardware. The couple, married nearly 28 years, were active in Greenville Community Church and remembered for their generosity and love of bowling, baseball and stock car racing. Michigan State Police were searching a pond near the Sewards’ home for evidence, and as of early July 2024 no suspects or arrests had been publicly identified.

Did anyone in the Sheridan area see or hear anything unusual around June 24 that could help investigators?
