Dear Editor,

I was recently walking down Marine Drive close to my home and the many shops I use, when a woman came out of one of the shops, calling to me.

She said she had my ring and asked me to wait a moment as she retrieved it. I asked her if she was sure she had the right person. She assured me that I was.

When she returned, she did indeed have my ring - one that I don’t always wear and had not noticed was missing. I must have removed it the last time I had my nails done in the shop!

I often come as a drop-in client, so they had no name or phone number by which to contact me.

How kind of this woman to safely keep my ring, watch for me as she worked, and track me down when she saw me.

The world is a better place for people like her. Thank you!

Micheline Darroch,
West Vancouver
