Powers contacted 6abc to help find Courtway, but Powers also did some digging of her own.



Through some health care connections, Powers got in touch with Courtway and sent her the sea glass artwork.



Courtway was overcome with emotion when she received the package, and she recorded her reaction to share with Powers as a "thank you."
