Recently my mother lost her wallet at Food Lion in Frostburg. Thinking all was lost, she started cancelling her ATM card, etc.
The next day she received a call from the Susquehanna Bank in Frostburg informing her that someone had turned the wallet in there. They had found her ATM card indicating it was her bank.
We would just like to give a big thank you to Gloria Keister, who found and turned in the wallet and for the staff of Susquehanna Bank for contacting us regarding the the wallet being turned in.
It’s very refreshing to know that there are still wonderful people out there!
