THE SENSITIVITY OF SENIORS. This letter was sent to the Lions Bay School Principal's office in West Vancouver after the school had sponsored a luncheon for seniors. An elderly gentleman received a new radio at the lunch as a door raffle prize and was writing to say thank you.
This story is a credit to all humankind. Forward this to anyone you know who might need a lift today
Dear Lions Bay School ,
God bless you for the beautiful radio I won at your recent Senior Citizens luncheon. I am 87 years old and live at the West Vancouver Home for the Aged. All of my family has passed away so I am all alone. I want to thank you for the kindness you have shown to a forgotten old man.
My roommate is 95 and has always had his own radio; but, he would never let me listen to it. He said it was a keepsake from his long dead wife, and understandably, wanted to keep it safe.
The other day his radio fell off the nightstand and broke into a dozen pieces. It was awful and he was in tears. He asked if he could listen to mine, and I was overjoyed that I could tell him to **** off.
