Feel good story...we need one.

Grandmother returns $15K she found — and gets her own generous surprise from strangers

https://nypost.com/2023/02/07/grandmother-returns-15k-she-found-gets-generous-surprise-from-strangers/

A 65-year-old grandmother’s honest deed inspired strangers to return her generosity and give her the shock of a lifetime.

After her car broke down about a year ago, Dianne Gordon of White Lake Township, Michigan, has been forced to walk nearly three miles to and from work five days a week.

On one of her wintery treks home from her job at VC Fresh Marketplace, she stumbled upon nearly $15,000 in a plastic bag outside a BP gas station.

While Gordon could’ve used the cash for, perhaps, a new car, she told WXYZ, “I was taught if it doesn’t belong to you, you don’t keep it.”

So she didn’t hesitate to alert the authorities about her found cache of cash.

“It never really crossed her mind to do anything other than turn it over,” White Lake Police Lt. Matthew Ivory, told WJBK.

Nice story.

I wonder, though, why the parents of her grandchildren couldn’t pick her up for the kids’ events.
