A Great Story

[Don M.]

In these day, when most of the news is disheartening, it is a welcome change to hear of something positive. Here is just such a story.

Two things stand out....First, a person who Really Wants to Work, and Second, the response of people willing to help when they find out there is a problem.

Thanks Don. A man willing to walk that far to work has helping hands now. Nice story.

That is a great story to hear about! Thanks for sharing Don.

The fellow in the story has a work ethic that reminds me of the foreman that my husband hired when he first started the window cleaning business 40 years ago. He got hired on in the first year and last week we heard that he's thinking of retiring ..... in six months! The guy is 80! And it's not like he's poor and has to work. When we owned the company, we set up a pension (just for him) and he made very good money, worked tirelessly, refused to take vacations and now at 80, he's finally got a sort of end date in mind! Some folks seem 'tireless' don't they?

Quite incredible. It just shows that there really are a lot of good people out there.

On the news tonight, he was given a new Ford automobile and has over $300,000 in contributions coming his way.
