By Timfly
Tommy O’Connor found and returned a lost wallet filled with cash to its original owner, a veteran.
The wallet contained $2,300 when O’Connor, a high school senior, found it near a 7-Eleven in Fremont, California.
Instead of keeping the money, O’Connor gave the wallet to a teacher’s assistant so it could be given back to its original owner.
“It’s just doing something I wish everyone else would do,” O’Connor said.
What makes this act even more incredible is the fact that O’Connor’s family lives on a fixed income and O’Connor hadn’t had lunch money the day before.
When O’Connor’s mom heard what he had done, she sent him a heartfelt text to let him know how proud she was of him.
“I’m very proud of you son,” Mrs. O’Connor wrote. “Ms. Kalra called me. Wow your one in a million [sic]. Love you to the moon and back.”
O’Connor replied that she should be thanking herself, since she raised him
O’Connor received a $50 reward for returning the wallet.
