Look for the Helpers: A Stranger in Loyal
Tuesday, March 31st, 2020 -- 9:16 AM
-“When I was a boy and I would see scary things in the news, my mother would say to me, 'Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.’”Those are the inspiring words to Mr. Rogers from his mother, so we’re going to try and find the helpers. Today, our helper is a little different because I don’t know who it is. This was an amazing story that I saw on Facebook. An individual went to the Loyal Kwik Trip to pick up some everyday essentials like bread and milk. After grabbing what she needed, she realized she forgot her wallet. She told the store clerk that she would be right back, as she lived in town, with her wallet to pay for the items. That’s when a stranger waiting in line behind her told her she would pay for the items. The only form of repayment this individual asked for, pay it forward.
This may be a stressful situation for everyone, but we will get through this. Let's all work together and help each other along as we take the current situation day-by-day. And, if possible, make sure you continue to support our local businesses. They’re going to need our support now more than ever. If you know of someone who’s going above and beyond to help the community during this difficult time and would like them to be acknowledged for their work, please send me an email with details to [email protected].
