Just when you have lost faith in human kindness, someone
who teaches at Kean Elementary in Wooster , Ohio , forwarded the following
letter. The letter was sent to the Principal's office after the school
had sponsored a luncheon for the elderly. An old lady received a new
radio at the lunch as a door prize and was writing to say thank you.
This story is a credit to all humankind. Forward it to anyone you know
who might need a lift today.

Dear Kean Elementary:
God bless you for the beautiful radio I won at your
recent senior citizens luncheon. I am 84 years old and live at the
Sprenger Home for the Aged. All of my family has passed away. I am all
alone now and it's nice to know that someone is thinking of me. God
bless you for your kindness to an old forgotten lady.
My roommate is 95 and has always had her own radio, but
before I received one, she would never let me listen to hers, even when
she was napping.
The other day her radio fell off the nightstand and
broke into a lot of pieces. It was awful and she was in tears. Her
distress over the broken radio touched me and I knew this was God's way
of answering my prayers.
She asked if she could listen to mine, and I told her to
kiss my ass.
Thank you for that opportunity.
Sincerely,
Agnes Baker
