WESTLAND, Mich. (WJBK) -

Memorial services will be held later this week for two Westland teenagers whose bodies were discovered in a field on Detroit's east side.

A service for 17-year-old Jourdan Bobbish is set for 11:30 a.m. Friday at Ward Presbyterian Church in Northville. The memorial for 18-year-old Jacob Kudla is scheduled for Saturday in Livonia.

The teens were fatally shot, and Detroit police are investigating the killings. They were found Friday in a neglected field filled with trash and high grass.  

Bobbish and Kudla had been missing since July 22 after visiting the home of Kudla's uncle in Detroit.

The Bobbish family has also set up a memorial fund.  Anyone can donate at any Fifth-Third Bank location. They want to make it a scholarship fund or donate to a charity in Jourdan's memory.
