PORT RICHEY
The grass around the bus stop bench was thick and overgrown, the long blades scratching Mary Marzec’s legs. So with one brisk motion, the 88-year-old woman swatted the grass away from her knees — and accidentally flung her wedding ring into the field along Embassy Boulevard. The diamond-studded gold ring, which Mrs. Marzec had worn for nearly 60 years, had loosened as her fingers shrank with age. Now she was on her knees, patting the earth, praying to find her ring. She went into a nearby Chevron station and borrowed a pair of scissors. Then she got back on her knees and chopped away at the grass, crying, hoping. But she couldn’t find it.
“My husband said, ‘Come on, let’s go home. I’ll buy you another one,’ ” Mrs. Marzec recalled. “I said, ‘I’m not going until I find my ring!’ “

Mary and Ed Marzec led parallel lives for years before they’d met.

Instead the angels were given a small space in
the cold basement.
As they made their bed on the hard floor, the
older angel saw a hole in the wall and repaired it.

hard ground.The persistent turtle tried again and again with the same results. A Read More
