Lost & found seasonal items in Charlottesville

Lost holiday decorations in Charlottesville

I had a stack of holiday decorations set on the front porch of my apartment on West Main Street near the Downtown Charlottesville pedestrian mall when I stepped out at 7:45 p.m. on Sunday and found them missing. The garlands, a light-up snowman, and a wreath with pine needles were family heirlooms, and I can't replace the memories tied to them. I retraced every block from the Paramount Theater to the UVA Lawn, calling out to neighbors, but nothing turned up. They mean a lot to my family, and I hope they end up back with the person who found them.
