OldOleMiss, I loved reading your stories; especially the one about your father in law. It actually reads like an upbeat version of something Faulkner would write!
For the second story, though, I think I would have to agree with Sciencewoman. I don't think I could be as generous as you were. The only similar situation I could come up with regarding my own life would be if I found a sorority Badge that wasn't DZ and called the lady up and she divulged that she had my husband's Naval Academy class ring (no fraternities where he went to school), I would have said no how, no way, give it back.
Know what though? It makes me happy that there are such kind people like you in the world
