There is one born every day.
Today at our women’s Auxiliary meeting, Nelda tells us the following story:

But the man said, “I’d like to see something more special. She likes something more exotic!”
At that statement, the jeweler went to his particular stock and showed the gentleman some of his exceptional rings, saying:
“Here’s a stunning ring at only $40,000 & the only one in this style.”

The older man seeing this, said, “We’ll take it.”
The jeweler asked how payment would be made.
