I hope you have a minute for some good news. Well, it was good. Then it was bad. And now it’s good again. This is Rick. For the last couple of years, Rick has been quietly mowing lawns around Chickasha, OK, free of charge, for people who can’t do it themselves. A lot of lawns. 274 last year. Closing in on a goal of 300 this year. Until someone decided to steal his mower a few days ago.
This was brought to my attention yesterday and with the help of a few very generous KOOL 105.5 listeners, this afternoon we purchased and delivered a new mower to Rick. I have never met anyone so grateful and appreciative! Rick is a veteran and on a fixed income, and didn’t have the funds to replace it.
Speaking of veterans, one of the recipients of his kindness is a 97 year old veteran of WWII, Korea, and Vietnam. Rick’s payment is the joy he gets from helping someone in need and sometimes, a cold glass of lemonade. Bless you sir for what you’re doing. A reminder that there are some truly wonderful people in this community.
I don’t think I’ve ever asked anyone to share anything before, but if you want to spread a little good news, feel free to do so.
