'Poor' Woman Elinor Sauerwein Leaves Close to $2 Million to Salvation Army
Elinor Sauerwein donated $1.7 million to Salvation Army in California.;
She was taught by her mother to never waste a thing. She never purchased a dryer, hanging her laundry on a clothesline in the backyard. She painted her home when it needed a touch-up and mowed her lawn until she reached her early 90s. She refused to go to restaurants, the movies or pay for cable TV.
It could be said she took frugality to a whole new level.
Needless to say, it was a shock when a check for $1,731,533.91 from the estate of Elinor Sauerwein was presented to a California branch of the Salvation Army last Christmas Eve.
"It was a surprise and a blessing," Capt. Michael Paugh of the Salvation Army in Modesto told ABC News.
