- Armando Rodriguez made a shocking discovery while renovating Texas elementary school's gym. He found a 63-year-old purse beneath the floorboards. Turns out, the purse belonged to a 13-year-old girl named Beverly Williams. Inside her purse, she carried photos and other mementos, including a civil defense card from 1959. Sadly, she died in 2015. But her daughters were amazed to see old photos of their mother's classmates and their grandfather.
Kudos for going above and beyond to get these cherished memories to her children.
Yes, what a lovely man to turn it over to the museum!!
I wonder if he could find my wallet 🤔
Nice guy….
In my freshman year, 1989, I lost my purse. In 2018, I got a call saying someone found it. Inside were still some scrunches, my coin purse, and many jumbo-sized tampons. It was very embarrassing because that headline went all around my town.
@@Trund27 this is so random I know but why would they call her a teenage girl. She’s was clearly a child and they said she was at ELEMENTARY SCHOOL.
That is so neat. Those women were like kids in a candy store. What an amazing find. Rest in peace to their mother.
ik how dope is that
We all would be
Wow incredible find. I wish the original owner could have seen it again but it’s very nice the daughters got to see it.
@@killallgooners Please step on me
@@killallgooners its a scam
@@killallgooners Someone who, unlike you, has enough intelligence to understand who asked
Me too
@@killallgooners Everyone asked for it so get your damn ass outta here!
It’s sad that the original owner couldn’t see her lost purse.
Maybe she could see it after she died, and helped it reach her family.
@@ChaoChao0071 that's a good twist . You should have an angelic Chao not a choas one
@@ChaoChao0071 That’s possible.
It’s just a a kids purse
@@elizensiado4130 sentimental value.
This is truly amazing they're still good people out there
@@killallgooners i asked
@@killallgooners Ur mum did
@@killallgooners ur mom did
Tf has to do with good people?
@@ravenfall9203 well instead of throwing in the dumpster, the guy turned it in. not hard to understand
It is so sad that she passed away. I am happy the daughters got to see it, but I wish that the owner could get to see her purse.. Amen 😔

@@lukemaster2161 You got the whole squad laughing😐😐😐
@@nerdface5438 aye its just a joke bro💀💀
How precious of an experience for the daughters after a comfortable amount of time has passed since their mother went over the rainbow. I say it like that because all the consuming pain that we feel when love ones pass for a year or several after would definitely change the way they view this experience. Here they can experience with almost pure certain joy.
And this is so touching to see the daughters of this lady all together to discover all those little things in a vintage purse that belonged to their mom ❤❤❤
I love the story. It's always nice to go back to the memory lane. When you hear the story and you're really excited and want to know what happened to her after these many years.
I love this. My grandma gave me so many things through the years. I love and cherish each one. It’s my time machine back to her. ❤️ so glad this was found.
Was that your grandma purse ?
Wow she was a classic woman even from a young age, beautiful purse 👛
What an amazing discovery! I’m sure if the lady was still alive, she would of been absolutely thrilled! Kudos to the man who found it and sent it somewhere safe and the historian who reunited it with the owners daughters. Now they have cherished memories of their mother they can have forever! ❤️❤️ You have my condolences dear women! Keep living on just as she did! ❤️💕
This is amazing that her daughters get to have such cool memories of their Mom ♥️
i love how the family was able to look at the stuff inside & reminisce in it
Heart touching
Kudos to contractor who found the purse.its a precious gift to daughters from their mother
I bet it broke her heart for a while after losing it. That's a lot of cherished mementos, photos, etc. It would have been great for her to get it back - but very nice that her daughters were able to get a little glimpse during her young teen years. Great story!
I remember 1959 I was 13 that year too. But I never had a fancy purse or any pictures to carry anything in. Wish I could go back to those days and be young again. So glad the children of this lady were able to be reunited with the purse.
What does age 70 feel like?
@@lamarcolvin8833 Well it does not feel that great and I am 76 now. I am waiting for my next venture in life in the great beyond.
There was a similar story like this from IE that I watched probably a year ago. A young lady lost her purse in a theater in the 60s I think. Then an employee found it and was able to give it back to her when they found out whom it belonged to. It was full of her old treasures. Amazing stories!
This is awesome. Sad she passed away.
@@killallgooners Please step on me
@@Fun-rf9vs WHAT
@@killallgooners you
@@alexandermaury9911 step on him
@@rk-ve6jy no i'll throw him into the shredder
I'm 30 and lost my purse at school in the 7th grade once. Hopefully they'll find it there in 63 years too. lol
You never know and maybe a contractor will find yours if he renovate your school.
Will u make it to 93 years old
How sweet... 🥺 That would make me so happy and it would bring lots of tears too. Thank you for finding Beverly's daughters. I know they thoroughly enjoyed this!! 💝
I am in tears. This was so freaking cool. I hope the mom rests in peace, it was so nice for her daughters to take us on a journey thru the belongings. God bless!
Thank you, Armando Rodriguez, for selflessly working to return this purse to her family.🥰
This is so sweet, something beautiful came out of a loss ❤

So happy this purse was returned to the Beverly's daughters, so they can have some more wonderful memories of her. May Beverly rest in sweet peace.
How beautiful for them to be able to go back in time and revisit the memory of their mother through her lost things ♡
This is literally awesome. I love learning and hearing stories of my parents and grandparents when they were my age and even back when I was a kid.
Oh my goodness, her daughters look just like her, how beautiful! this is such a sweet story
Seeing the joy in the daughters faces was amazing.
So wonderful they have this treasure from their mom!
Ahh shoot, she passed. Before they said that I crossed my fingers hoping she’d still be around. It would have been cool if they could have given it back to her in person. But, still so wholesome.
Yeah same, I had the feeling and figured she passed away before it was confirmed.
Very very cool story... Especially for her daughters. Sad because she didn’t live to see her purse returned.
I love these stories! I’ve seen a few others like this of woman’s purses going missing in their schools and being found decades later! Always so fascinating.
She lives on even though she passed. Echoes from the past. So awesome for her children to see what Mom was like back then.
What a cute purse, she had great taste! 👛 What a beautiful memory!! ❤️
What a wonderful gift for her girls!
I love stories like these. Its like opening a time capsule.
How awesome is technology these days to aid in locating and unifying things lost. Super sweet and integrous of the contractor who dealt honorably with another’s possessions.
Super Neato can you imagine a blast from Moms past .
Those ladies enjoyed that thank you for sharing this 💞🥰
That is so beautiful to go down memory lane of your own mother God bless her soul
Simply Amazing, Good job that Contractor Found that Purse.
I love these stories. They just make you feel good.❤
Wow, this is nostalgic. Sad she isn't here to see this. Glad her daughters did.
Wow, that is so cool! Glad the daughters were able to see what was inside.
A beautiful feeling just to connect with family history..
This is incredible! Ohh, but I feel bad for their mum; the stress of losing your purse is real.
Now there is a feel good story in these crappy times we live in
So exciting to see my hometown on here. I used to volunteer at that museum with my grandmother. Just wow!
Outstanding to bring that back to her grown children. Well done.
I keep all sorts of old photographs, school stuff, and important family keepsakes in a fireproof box that I open a couple times a year because I love the feeling of personally-oriented nostalgia. I think if I found something like this, I'd initially be way too excited to go through it lol

I like how we carry pictures around on our phones now instead of physical copies
She lived her life in the best times, not like today's society, sad and stressful.
This is awesome. Already interesting for someone who loves history, so I can't imagine the feeling of being her daughter and seeing all this neatly saved.
I love these stories so much!
What a sweet little girl. So polished. Must have been a great mom.
The Contractor was the hero in all of this. He could have just thrown in away but instead he made efforts to return it to the owner.
How amazing is this. So wonderful.
Wow the fact they found the family is crazy
So cool they found it and found the person it belonged to. Sad she had passed away but cool her daughters got to have it. A great memory of their mom.
I’m so glad it was found and now something else of their moms for them to get back. ❤️

That's so freaking cute!! I wish I could find something like that from my family!
What a beautiful treasure!
That student has some taste in fashion
Thank you to the person that found it and honestly sacrificed it back to its owner/ owners God bless him
I wish I had a good memory of my mom.
That was back when many elementary schools were still K-8! I always wished I could go to one of those schools. I had to grow up too fast, going to junior high in 7th grade. Now my son’s middle school is grades 4-8, and they start high school in 7th grade. Let kids be kids! ❤
Well, that's amazing. Just like a time capsule ,really enjoyed seeing this .makes you think what other treasure awaits out there . Too bad your mom couldn't be there to see it. That would have been cool ,to listen to what she had to say about the purse. Man reminds me of my grandmother so full of interesting things to talk about. I really learned a lot just hearing her talk.
I’m so glad the family got it back and was able to reminisce
What a beautiful site😊❣️
Wow I love this. I’m such a history buff and I love vintage items. If I found something like this I would be like a kid in a candy store.
Precious! 💕
Absolutely incredible finding 🔥
i want more news like this!
Such a beautiful story!
When you get a second chance to learn about a family member whose dead it is amazing. I wish i knew more or had more saved of my late brother 12 27 1988 - 01 07 17
What a beautiful treasure ❤️
I love this so much! I know she’s smiling down from Heaven. ❤🥰
Life and death walk hand in hand, neither for enemy, nor for friend. She's never gone as long as she's remembered.
I’ve got to say it’s quite interesting and at the time emotional seeing part of the mothers past in a unique way
Smiling from ear to ear.... a real feel good story. And that purse is class.
I’d love to see more stories like this one from IE!
Great job Armando! You made that possible ❤️
They need to have that put in a shadow box and hang it. That would be so awesome just to walk by and see that. What a sweet fond memory they have of their mother.
This is so sweet!
What a beautiful surprise 😍😍😍
this is such a cute story!
So sweet and sad! May Beverly and the others rest in paradise! 🙏
Good story. Hope they put it in a museum.
That's really cool and amazing so good to learn about family members from before🤔
I lost a doll once back in my kindergarten.. Never seen it or heard if it was ever found since then-
Im so happy to see that the owners kids got to see the purse
Jesus, who could've imagined that one day a contractor would find an old item that has been missing for so many years while working ? 😀👛
The purse served as a time capsule. Amazing 👛😯
That's so precious. I would love to find something like that from my mother, she passed in 2020
I’m so happy for the daughters
This was lovely!
This made my heart happy ❤️
There mom may have not been there physically but you can feel she was there spiritually and smiling with them.
We found a wallet from a coworker. Recently retired in a phone company building having equipment replaced that was lost in the 1960s. In 2001. We found it in 2001. It had $7.00 a few picture and a licence of the guy. He was very surprised to get it back
That was so sweet of the man that found it,to turn it in & NOT in the trash..
So amazing. And as any lady could see, “ She sure carried a lot of stuff in her purse”😂❤
