LOVELAND , Colo. — To most people, a quarter is only worth 25 cents. But to one Colorado family, the quarter left on their loved one's grave is priceless — if they can track down who left it there.

Russell still remembers opening the door in August 1968 — the night a uniformed officer showed up to tell her family Art had been killed while serving in Vietnam. He had joined the Navy out of high school in the Construction Battalion. "Chills, kind of excitement because there's somebody out there that still remembers. That's the hard part. As I get older, there's fewer and fewer people around to remember with," said Russell,"If I could get through it without ugly crying the entire time, it would mean everything. It would be like having a little piece of Art back."
