They haven’t asked for it back or for any money. It would be a hardship to give them $200, and it seems like it was a gift.
DEAR ABBY: I was a member of a nonprofit group for a couple of years. The wife of the leader bought me an old upright piano, thinking I would use it in a church they were starting. I was grateful for the piano and have used it a lot. It’s lovely.
The nonprofit disbanded and we no longer see these people. Do you think I need to give them $200? -- A GIFT IN THE WEST DEAR GIFT: If your conscience is telling you to remind them you have the piano and ask if they wish to be compensated, then make the call. It may make you feel better. Because you were not asked to return it, it is possible they won’t ask you for money. But if they do, try to work out an installment plan that won’t cause you stress.Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips.
