    Your hubby's wife's ashes are very lucky. When my stepmonster passed away*sings* (ding dong the witch is dead) her cremains remained in the broom closet of my Dad's apartment till he died two years later. That's how much SHE was missed by her own kids.

    Rest In Peace Casey (Bubba Dude) Your paw print will remain on my heart forever. 12/02

    Anita Lewis has recovered the turtle containing her husband’s previous wife’s ashes.

    Lewis, of Elmira, accidentally sold the ceramic turtle at her rummage sale Saturday. Later, her husband, Terrence Lewis, told her the urn contained the ashes of his first wife, Marcia Lewis.
    The turtle was recovered at the Salvation Army Thrift Shop in Horseheads after a tip from an anonymous caller to the Star-Gazette.
    Read more about this story in John Cleary’s Neighbors column on Wednesday.

    Oh my!

    I wonder if she helps with the Salvation Army and buys things cheap, which the Sally Ann marks up just a bit.

    Or...got fed up because she couldn't open the darn thing! OMG

    I hope hubby and present wife are okay - maybe he never told her and she didn't ask?

    Happy ending...(oops, no pun intended...)

    Actually, Catty, what I believed happened..

    It's getting so much media play around here, (and, from afar), I bet the buyer read articles and dropped it off at Salv Army and then called anonymous "tip" to its whereabouts.

    I mean, get home, try to open that damn turtle to make it into cookie jar, and can't break seal..then read in local newspaper all the hubba hubba about it (and learn wire news have picked this story up), and realize your yardsale "cookie jar" is really a cremation urn?
