FAMILY RETURNS $40,000 FOUND IN THEIR NEW HOME

When brothers Dennis and Kay Bangerter walked into their parents' old home in Bountiful-Utah at the request of Josh Ferrin, the current homeowner, they had no idea of the pleasant surprise in store for them.
45 thousand dollarsIt was a startling find for Ferrin when, in exploring the home's old workshop attic, he discovered eight ammo boxes—each stuffed full of money. Over 40,000 dollars in cash.
"I opened it up, freaked out. Closed it, locked it in my truck and called my wife," said Ferrin, "I couldn't let myself consider the money mine."
The original owner was Arnold Bangerter, and Ferrin managed to track down two of his children, Dennis and Kay, who both came out to see what he'd found.
"We just feel very fortunate that we were able to sell the house to such a great family," said one of the Bangerter brothers.
The brothers said they were planning on splitting the money between their other four siblings.
Ferrin told NBC News, "It was a great opportunity to take my children and tell them, 'We are going to do something awesome!'"
