Woman recovers turtle containing ashes - Update

Anita Lewis has recovered the turtle containing her husband’s previous wife’s ashes.



Lewis, of Elmira, accidentally sold the ceramic turtle at her rummage sale Saturday. Later, her husband, Terrence Lewis, told her the urn contained the ashes of his first wife, Marcia Lewis.

The turtle was recovered at the Salvation Army Thrift Shop in Horseheads after a tip from an anonymous caller.
