Letter about kindness

Fillmore County Journal - Weekly Newspaper Serving Southeast Minnesota's Bluff Country - Letter to the Editor

To the Editor,

Many of you know me as a 94-year-old gentleman who often needs a cane to get around. That’s what I want to talk about.

Many places where I go, and often the people don’t know me, I am offered help.  They want to

help me get around or carry something for me. For this I am very thankful. I believe this shows how people really are, not how they are presented in the media, and this makes me very happy. Have a good summer.

Harvey Benson

Harmony, Minn.
