people who stole/were trying to steal the family silver. Do you still have it? Can I come to your house and pick it up and restore it to the place of honor in our family? I would be happy to pay for the shipping if you could send it back to us. My MIL died many years ago, but two of her sons are still alive and would happy to know the family silver has been returned to the fold.
