KAMLOOPS — A Kamloops thrift store is looking to return a donation after they received an urn filled with ashes on Wednesday (July 6) morning.

The iridescent white urn was donated to the Habitat for Humanity Restore on the North Shore. It came bubble-wrapped in a white cardboard box.

“My guys were looking through the box, we sorted the things out, and we pulled this little white box out of the container, and inside we found the urn,” said John Stokes, operations manager of the Restore.

It appears the urn contains the ashes of someone named Kayla Moss.

“We’ve reached out to all the local funeral services. None of them have that on their records,” said Stokes.

“Their records only go back so far. No one knows. We’ve posted it on social media in hopes of finding the owner.”

Those who recognize the urn or the name are asked to call the Restore at (250) 828-7867 or go to 800 Fortune Drive.
