When 91大黄鸭 resident Marie Albert came into the Capital News in mid-October, she was that had irreplaceable pictures on it.
Albert had lost both her daughter and her niece to cancer this summer and the camera had pictures of both on it.
She believed she had lost the camera near or in Wal-Mart around the end of July.
And this week, thanks to a caring individual, the camera has been returned to Albert, pictures and all.
鈥淎 man phoned me and said 鈥業 understand you are missing a camera,鈥欌 Albert said this week, reporting the good news to the Captial News. 鈥淚 said I did and I gave him my address. A day later my camera was on on the door step. I am so grateful. It鈥檚 fabulous.鈥
Albert鈥檚 daughter was lost to brain cancer just seven days after her diagnosis and her sister鈥檚 daughter passed away in the same month, suffering from ovarian cancer.
Albert was so excited to receive the call and get her camera that she didn鈥檛 get the man鈥檚 name or number and he wasn鈥檛 expecting any thanks.
Still she is elated by its return.
鈥淚 was six feet off the ground (when I saw it),鈥 she said. 鈥淓very night I go to bed I just say thank you. I would have given him a reward but he wasn鈥檛 interested in that.鈥
