The Record
There was the blue and white high school varsity jacket unearthed beneath a matted mound of sea grass in the Shore town of Union Beach.
A packet of love letters found in Normandy Beach that an engineer teaching at a Ringwood camp wrote to his wife in 1951.
And even a seemingly mundane item: a green sign displaying the house number 1804 with two dolphins painted on it.
For Posting photos of lost or found pets in the areas affected by Sandy, as well as posting animal shelters in need and temporary shelters that allow animals.
These are just some of the mementos and keepsakes washed from homes as superstorm Sandy ravaged New Jersey in October. Now two women are working to return them to their owners, using a Facebook page to post items lost at the Jersey Shore. Already, hundreds of Sandy victims have been reunited with their treasures.
