QUOTE Thief Returns Child's Cremated Remains POSTED: 6:52 am EST January 11, 2007 NEW PORT RICHEY, Fla. -- Eve and Steven Greene made a simple plea to the burglar who broke into their house: Keep the valuables. Return the cremated remains of their 4-year-old son. "Just drop it off somewhere with a note on it," Steven Greene said. "And that'll be that." It worked. Someone left the urn containing the ashes of 4-year-old Zachary Greene at the end of the Greenes' driveway Wednesday morning, two days after it was taken in a burglary. Police said a burglar broke into the home, snacked on Cheerios and tracked mud all over the house as he filled pillowcases with about $10,000 worth of valuables -- and Zachary's ashes. Zachary died of cancer in 2005. His parents kept the urn above their fireplace next to a Play Doh fire truck Zachary made before he died. Haha. Eats Cheerios and has a conscience. AND is a thief.  Well, at least he was nice enough to return the ashes.

^No, but the urn probably looked like it was worth a lot, and especially if it was placed front and center on their fireplace, he or she must of assumed it was worth much.
That was kinda nice though. I mean, take out the fact the the burglar ate their food, trashed their place, adn stole 10,000 worth of stuff. . . Still. lol. |

Burglars are still people. They might make wrong decisions from time to time, but (most) of them have hearts.

Why did he take his cremated remains at the first place?
