Old People are Great
Just when you have lost faith in human kindness.
Someone who teaches at a middle school in Safety Harbor,
Florida, forwarded the following letter.
The letter was sent to the principal's office after the school
had sponsored a luncheon for the elderly.
An old lady received a new radio at the lunch as a door prize
and was writing to say thank you.
This story is a credit to all humankind.
Dear Safety Harbor Middle School:
God bless you for the beautiful radio I won at your recent
senior citizens luncheon.
I am 84 years old and live at the Safety Harbor Assisted
Home for the Aged.
All of my family has passed away.
I am all alone now and it's nice to know that someone is
thinking 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 before I received one, she would never let me listen
to hers, even when she was napping.
The other day her radio fell off the nightstand and broke
into a lot of pieces.
It was awful and she was in tears.
She asked if she could listen to mine,
and I told her to kiss my ass.
Thank you for that opportunity.
