I want to thank the man who paid for my groceries at Food-4-Less. I have multiple sclerosis and was very fatigued on this particular day, so I sent my daughter and her best friend to grocery shop for me with the money I had.

They gathered what was on my list and were getting in line when an older gentleman asked them to get in line behind him. They were nervous but got in line anyway. Then, the gentleman told my kids he was going to pay for our groceries. My kids were so surprised and kept thanking him. They were so excited to tell me what had happened in the store.

I want to thank this angel among us. As a single parent, this man had no idea what a wonderful blessing he gave my family. May God bless the selfless angel!
