GROVE CITY, Ohio - A woman walking her dog made an unusual discovery when she looked down at the sidewalk, 10TV News reported Tuesday.
Donna Stevens said that she found a check from Henryville, Ind. dated 1982.
“A light switch went off in my head – horrible tornadoes.”
March tornadoes wiped out much of Henryville, including the town’s high
school, middle school, buses and almost every home in the city.
The E-F 4 tornado had winds of 175 miles per hour, 10TV News reported.
The check, made out to cash and signed by Patricia Walden, is clearly legible.
Stevens said that her cousin did a Web search, and the family discovered something interesting.
“When she read the people’s names exactly as it is on the check that
I’ve got, I knew then that I had something that had traveled a long
distance to Grove City,” Stevens said.
Two other Ohio families had found items belonging to the Walden’s – one
in Jamestown, Ohio from 1980 and one outside Cincinnati dated 1984.
Stevens said that she was still trying to find the couple.
“I was hoping maybe somehow that maybe someone would see a story or
something and know something about this or have found other items from
this family that we can return things to them,” Stevens said.
