<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Julie Gibson, post: 9821795, member: 87340&quot;]Thanks! </p><p><br /></p><p>I think you are correct about the drawer. The cross fell behind it. My dad had a lot of our family heirloom furniture in my childhood home. My mother got angry with my dad over a personal issue and when he was dying, she made him take all our precious items to Goodwill. She took a baseball bat to our beautiful cherry table and chairs. My dad was able to give some of the items to a friend. That person called me 3 months after he passed, telling me she had some gifts from Dad. </p><p><br /></p><p>One of the things he saved was the ring he wore every single day. It originally belonged to my 2nd great-grandfather, Rear Admiral Hawke, MD, a field surgeon for the Union during the Civil war.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
