Day 21

He’s Good People

Growing up, those were the words I so often heard from my elders’ mouths, referring to a kind act or deed someone had performed. That’s what came to mind today when Kevin, the manager of Bybees Align & Brake, came in on a Saturday morning (when the shop is normally closed), aligned our tires after the owner of the shop, Dan, worked until midnight last night fixing structural damage, then drove out to our hotel, picked us up, and in detail showed us everything that had been repaired. As we thanked him profusely, he simply replied, “Ah, it’s nothing. I’d hate to be in your situation. You need to get on the road and get home as soon as possible.”
