I knew a guy that married the same woman 3 times. He committed suicide. Actual true story.

We were all rooting for him. I know he is thrilled to get something back that meant so much to him.
It reminds me of when I was able to track down my favorite old 1967 Land Rover about 16 years after I sold it - I'm doing a frame up restoration on that one now after letting it sit disassembled in my basement since 1996.
