Heartfelt Gratitude for a Strangers Kindness

Wednesday, January 24, 2024

Dear Editor,

I hope this long overdue letter finds its way to the compassionate soul who extended a helping hand when I needed it the most. On the morning of October 27, at 5:45, I found myself in the midst of a challenging situation - a single-car accident on my way to the Pocatello Idaho Temple. I had left my cell phone at home and didn’t know what to do.

I said a prayer in my heart and approached a kind hearted individual, maybe a traveling delivery person, from Mountain Home, who immediately came to my rescue. Despite not knowing me, he offered to drive me to the temple after he finished filling his tires with air. His gesture of kindness meant the world to me, and I am deeply grateful for his selflessness. In the rush of the moment, I failed to ask for his name or offer him a token of appreciation. This letter serves as an attempt to express my profound gratitude to this generous soul. If, by chance, he comes across this message, I want him to know that his compassion and assistance made a significant impact on my day. To the anonymous hero from Mountain Home, thank you from the bottom of my heart. Your act of kindness is etched in my memory. I hope you were as blessed that day as I was.
