Recovered!
Alissa's Lucky Stars

Brenda Colla was hoping to recover a quilt that was "misplaced" by a moving company during their move to Valdosta Georgia. The quilt, "Alissa's Lucky Stars," was last seen on June 19, 2007 in Fayetteville, North Carolina. Several inquiries were made, but the quilt was not found. It was in a dark wood hope chest with other linens, and none of the contents have been recovered. The company was a moving company that contracts with the Air Force to move enlisted. The Colla's possessions were in storage for one week in Tallahassee, Florida.

In April 2008, Brenda wrote, "I just wanted to let you know that the quilt lost by a moving company when my daughter, Alissa, moved has been recovered. It was approximately 2 weeks after the notice appeared on your web site that the storage company miraculously found the hope chest and all of its contents. Apparently it had been in lost and found for a while??!! After numerous phone calls (every 2 weeks for about 2 months), it has been found. It is in the hands of its owner."
