Lifetime of memories stolen

Nicole Rotenburger is willing to do just about anything to get her camera back.

Sometime Tuesday night, thieves broke into her two vehicles parked in front of her Scarboro Road home in Rutland.

They made away with a camera which contained a lifetime of memories.

"There was about 1200 pictures on the memory card," says Rotenburger. "We have about three years worth of Christmas pictures and the last big birthday party with my husband's mom before she passed away."

Rotenburger says the memory card also contains birthday pictures of her son and daughter, and most recently, her daughter's prom photos.

"We're offering a reward. I don't even want the camera, I just want the card. They can have the camera, it's worth $600, I don't care."

She says she'll be checking the pawnshops in hopes the camera and the memory card do turn up.

This is not the first time Rotenburger has been the victim of crime.

About six or seven years ago, thieves smashed her car window and stole gifts from a day-long Christmas shopping spree.

Rotenburger says she was able to get most of the gifts back when the thief was arrested trying to return one of the presents.

Anyone with information as to the whereabouts of the memory card can contact Nicole at 878-1202.
