Yoga instructor's good deed
People are faced with a tough decision every day, but for one young yoga instructor Friday, there was no hesitation on which was the correct choice.
19 year-old Locust Valley resident Laura Hardy was presented with a few (hundred thousand) options after having lunch Friday, when she spotted a thick manila envelope on her bike ride home-- 300,000 options to be exact. As in $300,000 totaling in cash and checks made out to Fenster Ford, the area’s largest car dealer.
Upon discovering the small fortune, she immediately phoned Lincoln Federal Savings, the bank located in the same area where she found the envelope.
Through inches of snow, Hardy braved the elements to bike her way back to Lincoln. When she arrived at the bank in the early evening she was greeted by Xavier Mooney, president of Lincoln Federal Savings and Fred Fenster himself. They both thanked her and posed for photos.
In a world with so much wrong, it would have been easy to keep the cash, but not for Hardy.
“It’s enough just to do the right thing,” Hardy said.
