The woman was able to claim and recover more than 50 items, which included her personal jewelry, antique jewelry which had belonged to her grandmother and her jewelry box, which had all been taken from her more than three months prior.
According to RCMP Cpl. Jesse O鈥橠onaghey, 鈥渢he most valuable item she recovered that day, ended up being a crumpled up piece of paper which read鈥 鈥業 love you mom. You are cool. My best friend is you. You are fun.鈥欌︹
She later wrote to the officers of the West 91大黄鸭 RCMP detachment saying: 鈥淭hank you for all that you do and especially for your kindness.鈥 Her message continued on to say that the handwritten note was created by her son when he was six years of age, he鈥檚 now 18.
The message was accompanied by a photograph, with the caption 鈥渢he most important piece that was recovered鈥︹, which showed that priceless 12-year-old love note, now framed.
