Who cares if it has been around for years or the story changes.

The  themes about generosity, kindness, thinking of others  matters.

Reminds me of that Debbie Downer SNL skit, "whah-whah". Never miss an opportunity to spoil a good vibe. 

I hadn't heard this before and it's inspirational. Just because it's been around awhile doesn't mean it never happened.

I have no idea if has been around before or not but just came through on FB.

I thought it was such a nice post in the midst of all the garbage out there so thought I would share.

If it is anything other than a nice story, I apologize for posting.

Please do not apologize for this uplifting post. It's a wonderful story. Thank you for posting it. There are some stories out there that we don't know about. It's a reminder that there is hope. We need that.

Wish there were more people in this world like that.

What a nice thing to do!

@Mersha   I appreciate your post.  There is no need for an apology.  We are facing so many challenges and sighting an example of kindness is thoughtful and refreshing.  Thank you for your share.

Just because it's "been around for years" doesn't lessen its value.

Posters never cease to amaze here.

With all the bad stuff going on in this world today, its just nice to read an inspirational story about kindness ...who cares if its old its just nice to read an uplifting message...

What a wonderful gift and surprise!  There are still good people in this world.

I don't understand all the criticism @gizmogal is getting for simply pointing out that this is likely an urban legend. She said it was a nice, feel-good story and certainly did not chastise the OP for repeating it.
