A HEARTWARMING STORY
The following letter was sent to someone who teaches at a junior high, to
the principal's office, after the school had sponsored a luncheon for the
elderly. The story is a credit to all human kind. Read it, soak it in, and
bask in the
warm feeling that it leaves you with.
Dear Reyer School:
God bless you for thebeautiful radio I won at yoursenior citizen's luncheon.
I am 84 years old and live in the country home for the aged. All my people
are gone. It's nice to know that someone thinks of me. God bless you for
your kindness to an old forgotten lady. My roommate is 95 and has always
had her own radio, but would never let me listen to it, no matter how often
or politely I asked. The other day her radio fell and broke into a lot of
pieces. It was awful. She was very upset. She then asked if she could
listen to mine, and I said fuck you.
Sincerely,
Edna Johnson
