I don't know how Dad came to have the check. He probably either asked for it (what a bit of trouble for both him and whoever was helping Pap with his finances at the time) or Pap saved it with his possessions and after he died whoever went through his papers found it and gave it back to my father. Either way, I'm thrilled to have it for both of the signatures that are one it. (I forgot to scan the back where my dad signed it but will add it to the post when I do.)

I was wondering how it was that your parents had the check since it didn't come from their account. It must have meant a lot to them to think of getting it back. And how cool for you!

It was an extra step for Dad to ask to have the check returned. I forgot to scan the back where my father signed the check. I'll have to do that.
