‘’We waited patiently in line to make our bank deposit. We were about to see the teller. Suddenly, letting go of his walker, my husband folded, crashing to the floor. I kneeled down. He was confused but not hurt. I tried to pick him up but couldn’t. Suddenly, out of nowhere this large imposing man with a fiery red beard quietly approached. He leaned in and ever so politely said, please, let me help, Before I knew it he picked my husband up, threw him over his shoulder and effortlessly carried him to our car. As he belted him into the passenger seat I proceeded to open the trunk and toss the walker inside. I turned around to say thank you. Where was he? Gone, not to be found. A moment of kindness I will never forget.”
Highlighting acts of kindness like this is an initiative of Better Together, an ad-hoc group created by lifelong learners who participated in a Chesapeake Forum course that led to continued discussions.

People in this County are kind to others. So unlike where we previously lived. It is refreshing and adds to the joy of living here.

I had something similar to this that happened to me. I was in Lowes at Easton in the tool section. My right hip was soon to be replaced and I was in severe pain. As I went to lean on a toolbox and it rolled away from me and down I went. As I was trying to get up a very large strong man came over and said,(You need some help) ? I said yes and before I knew it he had lifted me to my feet . Once I was able to get straight I turned to thank him and he was gone. It restored my faith and confidence that there are good people here in Easton.
