Last spring someone at the North Canton Middle school stumbled upon an impressive artifact. Crammed in the corner of the wall next to a locker, there was a small red purse covered in dust and spiderwebs. Upon closer inspection, the lucky finder realized that the purse belonged to a young lady named Patti Rumfola. According to the findings in her purse, Patti, who may have gone to school in the 1950s or 1960, was around 14 years old at the time she has lost her precious belongings.
