Proud community member expresses gratitude

On Feb. 25, my husband and I attended The “SLU Monologues.”  We were very impressed by the performances and were touched by the vulnerability and passion of the performers.

When we left, I inadvertently left my purse near where I was sitting.  I didn’t realize this until the next morning when I attempted to run some errands.

My husband contacted a friend, SLU security guard, Peter Garvin.  Peter made a few calls and let us know that, indeed, my purse had been turned into the Department of Public Safety and Security Services.

When I left my purse at SLU it had over $100 in cash, my debit and credit cards, and several forms of ID. When I arrived at DPSSS, the officer had me check my purse, and I was astonished to find that nothing was missing! Someone had returned my purse intact!

Thank you to the SLU community for restoring my faith in the kindness of others.
