one
day
i
saw
a
guy
stop
traffic
and
get
out
of
his
truck
to
help
an
old
lady
walk
across
the
street
.
i
didn't
think
that
things
like
this
happened
.

unhinged
when
my
dad
was
filling
the
boot
with
the
local
he
works
for
a
few
months
back
for
the
victim's fund
he
stopped
a
trucker
and
the
trucker
said
"
hey
i
got
a
lot
of
paper
work
to
do
;
how
bout
i
park
my
truck
and
you
collect
from
all
the
people
that
get
backed
up
behind
me
.
i'll
match
the
highest donation."
my
dad
came
back
waving
a
fifty
chuckling
and
the
guy
said
"
hey
i
didn't
think
anyone
would
give
that
much
but
all
i
can
give
you
is
a
20
"
a
few
months
ago
with
all
the
talk
of
heroism
it
was
nice
to
know
that
some
trucker
in
northeastern
ohio
did
what
he
could
too
.
