The man's sister thinks he's being too hard on his nephew for ignoring him after the incident. What do you think?

My nephew stole a sentimental $50 bill from me, AITA?
A sentimental $50 bill was stolen by my nephew which was a memento of my best friend. After 9 years, my friend gave me this bill when he found out he was going to be a dad. Unfortunately, he passed away when his daughter was 5. The bill was a reminder of his existence and a precious memory. My nephew stole it to take his girlfriend out to eat, but I am heartbroken. I am not ready to talk to him yet and my sister thinks I am punishing him too hard. Do you think I am being too hard on him? What would you do in my situation? Let's read some comments and see what others have to say.
