Dear Editor:
On Sunday, March 6, I was biking to church just before 8 a.m.
I was excited to get out on my bike in the sunshine and forgot to zip up my jacket pockets. Unbeknownst to me, I lost my wallet. It has sentimental value in that it was given to me by my late daughter and my son on my birthday many years ago. I retraced my route from home to church several times.
When I got home the last time after searching with no luck, I walked into the house and the phone rang. It was the North Vancouver RCMP saying a stranger had turned in my wallet. I would like to send a huge “shout-out” to the kind person who turned in my wallet and the local RCMP for looking me up.
What could have been many phone calls to cancel my credit cards plus the loss of personal mementos turned into a happy ending. It was a small event in my life but it restored my faith in strangers. Thank you.
David Brear
