 Here's an interesting story that gives the term "small world" some serious credibility. After spending Thanksgiving with his parents in Chicago, Michael Ebner decided to go shopping on “Black Friday” before heading home to Indiana. He was accompanied on his shopping trip to Peru Mall by his son, Ryan, and daughter-in-law, Bethany. According to Michael’s recollection, Bethany removed her wedding ring and engagement ring in the car to apply hand lotion. She assumed she placed the rings in her purse, but most likely just left them on her lap. When they left the car, both gems fell to the floor, but no one noticed. Hours later, after realizing that Bethany has lost her rings, they returned to the mall parking lot where their car was parked. They returned to the parking lot and found the wedding band on the pavement where their car was parked. But the engagement ring was nowhere to be found. They searched and searched, but with no avail. “We pretty much thought it was gone,” explained Michael. Then Bergner’s employees told Michael someone had reported finding a ring, but they unfortunately did not have that person’s information. At 6 p.m., after Bethany had given up and left town without her engagement ring, Michael received a call from his cousin, Bill Ebener. Bill asked if Bethany had lost a ring. When Michael asked his cousin how he knew about the lost ring, Bill answered simply: “Because I’m holding it right now.” I guess it really is a small world after all.
