Her sister, Viviana Moraes, says everyone went out to work and school on Wednesday (7 Aug) morning as Andreza slept.
When they returned later that day, the mum was no longer there but they assumed she would arrive a short while later.
On Thursday (8 Aug) morning, they realised her documents, mobile phone and keys were still in the house.
Her eldest son also discovered one of his blankets was missing, as reported by Need To Know.
Andreza’s mother filed a missing person report on Friday (9 Aug) after finding the garden gate broken.
Officials went to the home in Tatuí, Brazil, and began searching for her.
They soon found her body in the garden with signs of strangulation and a severe head injury.
It is believed Andreza had also been dragged to the Location.
Viviana said: “We believe she was killed inside the house.
“In her room, the floor had been cleaned.
“The police found a face towel of hers on top of the wardrobe with blood on it.
“It was hard to see because it had been cleaned, but she was dragged out to the garden.”
Andreza worked as a manicurist at a beauty salon.
She was laid to rest in Tatuí on Saturday (11 Aug).
The police are investigating the case as suspected femicide and destruction, concealment or removal of a corpse.
No arrests have been made so far.
