Dear Editor:
I just wanted to send a comment to the person(s) who felt compelled to steal my granddaughter’s bicycle from our front step this past weekend.
It was a 2-year-old bike with a torn seat. It couldn’t possibly have been worth much to you, but it meant the world to her. There is nothing more heartbreaking than watching a happy-go-lucky girl go out the door for a morning ride around the block with her friends, only to have her return seconds later completely dissolved in tears because she can’t find her bike.
Could we have been more diligent in securing her bicycle? Of course. Did we feel that was necessary in our neighborhood? Nope. Will we be more diligent in the future? Yup.
