Josh Ferrin picked up the keys to their new house in Salt Lake City earlier this week. He was excited to finally have a place his family could call their own. As he walked into the garage, a box caught his eye.
“I felt very surprised and called my wife. She wouldn’t believe what I had found,” said Ferrin, who wo rks as an artist for the Deseret News in Salt Lake City.
Then he found seven more boxes, all full of cash. Ferrin quickly took the boxes to his parents’ house to count. Along with his wife, they put thousands of bills on a table. They stopped counting at $40,000, but thought there was at least $5,000 more on the table.
Ferrin thought about how so much money could buy things he never thought he could afford. “I wish I could say there was never any doubt in my mind,” Ferrin said. “But the money wasn’t ours and I don’t believe you get a chance very often to do something honest and that is a lesson I hope to teach to my chil dren.”
He then thought about the home’s previous (先前的) owner, Arnold Bangerter, who died in November and left the house to his son. So Ferrin called Bangerter’s son with the news. Paul Bangerter knew his father hid money away because he once found a roll of cash taped under a drawer in their home, but he never considered his dad had hidden so much over the years.
“He grew up in hard times and people that sur vived that time didn’t have anything when they came out of it unless they saved it themselves,” said Paul Bangerter. “He was a saver, not a spender.”
“I’m a father, and I worry about the future for my kids,” Ferrin said. “I can see him putting that money away for a rainy day.”
56. Seeing so much cash, Ferrin’s first thought was to _____.
