Shopper grateful that keys left on car in Walmart parking lot remained there untouched and other letters to the editors

Honest people were shopping at Walmart in Lookout Valley last week. Let me explain.

I went into the store to do my shopping around 2 p.m. and didn’t come out until after 4. When I pulled my buggy full of groceries up to the car, I noticed my car keys were lying on the trunk of the car. They must had fallen out of my pocket when I got out of my car.

Flabbergasted comes close to the emotion I was feeling. Incredulous and thankful are others.

Imagine how many people passed by my car and saw those keys. Imagine how easy it would have been to take those keys, get in the car and drive away. Imagine how grateful I am to the person who found them and to those who left them for me.

God bless you and all of those other honest people shopping at Walmart.
