    This is absolutely AMAZING. I grew up hero worshipping Flo Jo in the 80's and remember Al defending her on TV when people made fun of her. So happy this stuff came back to him instead of ending up in the trash. What a lovely story and thank you for doing the right thing!

    1 Corinthians 13:4-7. I love 💖 that scripture. It fits you Sir. You delivered much joy and love to many. The consideration you showed Flo-Jo's husband and family was one of the best acts of kindness someone could do. I'm not naive. I realize we can't survive on just love alone.....but it surely helps. Watch what happens. Your business will prosper more because of it. Great job. Love Never Fails.

I know how much it means to have late family members mementos. Its the only physical thing left of them. Your story made me cry. May your act of kindness touch others to bless others & it be your legacy to our Lord..

    You don't always have to make a profit man. Sometimes you can just be a nice person and help people. Don't you understand that God has blessed you abundantly and has raised you up into a position to where you can help others along the way as well. Remember , He can take everything faster than he gave it to you. There is difference between false humility and real contrite humility Micah 6:8

    woah i had flo jo’s personal polaroid camera with her signature on it to mark that it was hers, that i got from a flea market.
    The lot was full of her personal stuff so i figured the stuff was from her estate sale.
    ive since given the camera away to a young female aspiring photographer who was also a fan of flo jo, but had i known i woulda loved to have given it back to the family.

    Great story. I've been a Track and Field addict all my life and had a chance to watch FloJo run a couple of times. She was breathtaking. Her early death is a reminder how precious life is and how we can't take any of our days for granted. I'm not surprised to learn you and Al hit it off so well, he is amazing.

    Obviously, I don't know the specifics of your deal, but it seems you compromised in a very generous way. Kudos to you. It's sad it came to this. I've seen nothing reported as to about how the items were no longer in the "Joyner" family's possession.

    • @JNante
      @JNante 2 года назад +1

      Flo-jo probably had a storage unit that was forgotten about in the wake of her passing etc. . When no payments are made on the units the storage company auctions it off, units can go for $1.00 to thousands depending on interest. I had no idea that this was a business until an old friend I've been reacquainted with shares that is what she does, buys units go through them and resale the items on various platforms. It's been very lucrative for her.

      @@Bargainhuntersthrift I just wrote 5 paragraphs & RUclips ate it but I'll give it another shot...
      OK, This was in a time of great turmoil & depression in my life - times were very dark for me
      I started to notice one day that I was waking at exactly 4:44 every morning
      day after day this went on & I thought nothing of it....Then I started to notice the receipts I was receiving were all 4.44, then I noticed the license plates that had 444 kept pulling in front of me, News papers blowing down the street and wrapping on my leg had 4.44
      & it was just everywhere, all the time...
      It was not like I was just noticing 4:44, it was like some all powerful being was manipulating time & space to send me a message if that makes sense?
      For all this to have been random chance & coincidence it would have been far more likely my refrigerator would have suddenly grown legs, shouted I can't do it anymore & ran out the door
      It was not random, no...couldn't have been
      & I kept on seeing 4:44 every morning on my clock
      Finally I decided I would trick my clock & force myself not to look at it as soon as I wake...I'll show 'em I thought!...
      Next morning I forced myself not to look & smoked a cigarette...but halfway thru it was as if the clock "silently screamed my name" & forced me to look...yes to see the clock say 4:44
      It was not a conscious effort but I looked - If I had looked when I woke it would have said 4:43, & if I had looked when I was finished with the cigarette it would have said 4:45
      OK...Still with me? still awake?
      So I freaked out and went on the web to see other people also report seeing 444...people have all kinds of ideas about what it is & what it means but...I saw I wasn't alone to experience this
      Then I freaked out & went on RUclips & started ranting on video's about 444 & talked about my experiences. OK at the time RUclips had some kind of a counter on the video's that showed how many spaces & letters you wrote...
      When I finished ranting out about seeing 444 I noticed the counter said I had used 444 spaces, then I relied to myself - freaking out about that coincidence & that too also equaled 444, then I replied to my self again furiously typing away & saw this comment was 444 as well...
      & on the last morning when I woke there was a powerful feeling of what I can only describe as pure love & understanding coming from the corner of the room, how to describe it?...
      It was like a force field, a solid force...not emotion
      & then I stayed under the bed a lot after that...the 4:44 kind of went away
      But my feelings on what I was experiencing? My feelings is that it was a ironically vague message from God, nothing specific really but it was a extremely difficult & well thought out manipulation of time & events to deliver me a simple message, & the message was?
      I am with you, you are not alone, don't worry, I love you
