COLORADO SPRINGS — The frozen remains of a 71-year-old Colorado Springs woman will remain packed in dry ice for 72 hours while her family decides whether to appeal a magistrate’s decision to turn her body over to an Arizona nonprofit for cryogenic preservation.

El Paso County Magistrate Barbara L. Hughes ruled Monday that Mary Robbins’ will directs that her body be turned over to the Alcor Life Extension Foundation of Scottsdale, the Colorado Springs Gazette reported.

Her daughter, Darlene Robbins of Pueblo, had contested the will, stating that her mother changed her mind about cryogenics while suffering terrible pain from terminal cancer.
