My name is Les Lubcke and I am 90 years of age.

My story started on Friday November 6, waiting with family at a bus stop to be picked up to attend my grandson’s wedding at The Old Dairy.

Unfortunately I hopped on to the bus and accidentally left my mobile phone together with a wedding card and money on the bus stop seat.

Not long after the bus went down the road I realised I had left my phone and the card either on the bus stop seat or in the car, which really made me feel very anxious.

Once the wedding ceremony dinner commenced, my daughter received a message from my retirement village manager Erica, that she had received a call from the Albany police station to say that someone had delivered my phone and card to them.

The police advised us to call them the following day to come and collect both of my items.

You can’t believe how relieved I was.

I was also even more relieved once we collected my phone and card to realise that all my cards with my phone and the wedding card and money were all intact.

I was so happy to know that whoever the kind people who handed in my items to the police were, they were so honest, and for my family and I to have faith that there are still such wonderful people in the world.

If you are reading this story then please accept my huge thankyou for taking my belongings to the police station, which made my day and allowed me to enjoy the wedding.

With many thanks and kindest regards,

Les Lubcke, Albany
