It's really nice to know that there are still kind people out there in the world who try to do the right thing. As of now it looks like the medal will be returned to the NYPD who will see if they can find a family member to give it to and if not, it'll find a place at Police headquarters.
When Lori Kline found an NYPD Medal of Valor in a $4 grab bag she bought at an Ohio thrift shop, she didn't rest on her laurels.
The 47-year-old made her way to the website NYPDangels.com and announced her discovery on the memorial page for the medal's recipient, John Morrissey.
Morrissey died way in 1934, but Kline was determined to restore his legacy.
“I am glad that I found this so it isn't sold or lost,” she wrote on the website on Dec. 27. “I want to make sure it goes where it belongs to his family or NYC PD.”
