Got my Gram's vase back today

In the 70s, my Gram moved and downsized. My sister-in-law and I had a tiny antique shop and I put some of Gram's things in there to sell for her. One of the things was a massive Heisey portland panel vase. My best friend came for a visit, and bought the vase. After my Gram died, I wanted keepsakes that reminded me of her. I told my friend that if she ever wanted to get rid of the vase, I'd buy it back. She'd just smile, and never parted with it. My friend passed away almost 2 years ago. Her sister had some health problems, but is well now. I asked her if I could have the vase, telling her the story. She said I was welcome to the vase. I pet sat for her last week, stayed a little longer to visit. We went to my friend's house today and after 50 years, Gram's vase is back with me
