From Summerwood General facebook page: Nathan Gorrell ****UPDATE**** I have since learned that her name is Kelly and she recently moved to the Cypress area of Houston. Help me find her?!? ****UPDATE**** This may never reach the person it is intended for; however, I feel as though I must try. During todays Summerwood community garage sale, I sold a table to a lady who at the time did not have transportation or the cash necessary to buy the table. A price was agreed upon, and I told her I would hold the table until she returned. That took place at about 9:30 this morning. As I was putting the sold sign on the table, another lady approached me about purchasing the table. I told her that I had already sold the table. She mentioned to me that she was going through a divorce and that she was needing new stuff to help her with the separation. I felt bad for her, but had already sold the table. However since I did not have the cash from the previous buyer and I did not know when she would return, I asked for the second ladys phone number in order to contact her in case I did not see the original buyer. Hours passed. At approximately 12:30, I texted the second lady and notified her that I had the table if she wanted it. She was very grateful and came right over with the cash and purchased the table. Approximately an hour later, the original buyer showed up. She rented a U-Haul and was ready to buy the table. Sadly, I was a bit rude. I failed to explain the situation. I simply said that someone had come and purchased the table. I didnt tell her about waiting until after noon, and I didnt explain that I was leaving and needed to sell it before going out for the rest of the day. I feel bad for the original buyer. If there is anyway to reach her, I would like her to get this note and contact me back. She mentioned that she was a single mother of five and that she really needed the table. My response again was rather short as I stated that the second lady was recently divorced and she, too, needed the table. Unfortunately, today my word was not my bond and I feel disheartened. If there is anyway to find her, please help me out. She was a blonde lady and again the only other details I have is that she mentioned she was a single mom with five kids and really needed the table. My words were unkind in the moment, as I didnt explain the situation and I didnt explain that I was in a rush to leave. If there is anything I can do to make it right I would like to find her. I simply failed to do my due diligence with the original sale by not asking for any contact information or even clarifying a time frame in which she might return. I am apologetic and hope that this message can find her. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Below are comments that were left on that facebook page... This might help in finding her...
