A dirty, faded red purse from the 1950s was found stuck behind a school locker in Ohio – more than 60 years after it was lost.

She was also a costume designer and seamstress for a theater in DuBois and founded a Theatre Arts Guild and Young Women’s Club in Punxsutawney. She was preceded in death by her husband, John, and was survived by five children, all of whom reside in Maryland.

Marilyn Riehl, one of her closest friends, told North Canton City Schools that Patti never mentioned losing a purse but said that she would use the clutch for special occasions. "One of the sweetest girls I've ever known," Sally Krum Roden, another classmate, told the school district in a press release."Everyone loved her. She had a beautiful character."a post on their Facebook pageThe school district shared photos of the purse’s contents, which included photos, schedules and wheat pennies that all five children kept as a token of remembrance of their mom.

"I cannot THANK YOU enough," Rumfola's daughter Stephanie wrote back to the school."We agreed that Mom would have been SO excited if she could see all of this. Would have made her smile so hard to know this has been found and reminisce about a day in the life of her old self."
