To the remaining members of CG, this is preaching to the choir.
Integrity, an old-fashioned concept. |

Thanks for sharing. That is an inspiring story and, unfortunately, a rarity today.
My wife lost her purse about a month ago. Fortunately, someone was kind enough to return it. Minus the wallet, cash, credit cards. That is what one has come to expect nowadays. |

We live by fear today. I'm certain I have as well, but alas when we who know better live by fear ....

That is unfortunate. It is disappointing that fear controls the possibility of doing a good deed. The possibility of being accused of stealing money that was never there is disheartening. This is the measure we have come to expect.
