A good deed noticed.

I was driving down Wyandotte and cursing myself as the bus slowed in front of me, initially I thought he was stopping to drop someone off but as I slowed I noticed what he had noticed. An older gentleman was out trying to salt the ice on the sidewalk and had fallen. I stopped, put on my 4-ways and rushed to help but the driver and a passenger had done so as well and were able to get him up and safely walk him back to his property - which I would have had a very hard time doing on my own, this man was at least 6'! The road was busy, and I'm certain this bus driver wasn't the first to notice this poor guy but he was the first to stop. Although I don't use Windsor transit, I know the drivers get more negative feedback then positive. Please thank a bus driver today. Give them a candy cane, a hug, a smile.. anything really. Especially the guy driving bus 638 route 2 December 22nd around 2:20 :)

Door to Door Angel

On Wednesday December 21st, 2016, I received a call from my father's house. My father (who is very ill) had called to tell me that he had fallen, and that someone wanted to speak to me. He passed the phone over to a woman, however I cannot remember her name. She stated that she had been going door to door (selling something I think), and that my father had asked her to come in when she knocked. Assessing the situation, she helped him up, saw that he was hurt, and he then asked her to call me. I told her someone would be there shortly, and my uncle was there within 10-15 minutes. This wonderful woman stayed with my dad the entire time, to make sure that someone came to help him. I just wanted to express my sincere thanks at how you handled the situation. it's nice to know there are caring individuals out there. Merry Christmas!

Generous Gentleman

My Mom was in the check out line at Freshco on Malden Rd yesterday morning and the lady behind her had a heaping cart of holiday groceries. An older gentleman behind the lady asked if that was for her Christmas dinner. She replied "yes, I received my cheque today so I thought I'd better get it done". The gentlemen then said "Merry Christmas, it's on me!" It's so touching to even hear about this happening. Merry Christmas to the very kind stranger and to the lady who received his generous gesture too!!!

Paying it forward

Today I went shopping at Zehrs on Dougal to get baking items with my boyfriend's Mom... two beautiful ladies approached us and handed me a stocking and said that they had one more left for me! As they walked away I looked in it and it was full to the top with supplies, candy and a 50$ Walmart card 💕 Happy to see people out blessing others and very thankful to meet those lovely gals!! Now its time for me to pay it forward.

Abdul from Home Depot

I was out shopping at Home Depot Tecumseh Rd. East on Tuesday, December 20th. While there, a man named Abdul was assisting me with lumber for a project I'm doing. I have never come across someone more helpful and kind than him. I never once felt like I was being rushed or unimportant. He spent a good 30 minutes helping me and I appreciate him so much. Some times when I go into Home Depot, as a woman I feel anxious and looked at like I'm clueless and feel as though I'm a burden to the employees. But never once did Abdul treat me any differently. I really hope he sees this, he's an amazing employee and I am so thankful for him.

Very Sorry!

To the driver of the maroon minivan, turning left from Moy to Ottawa St. apporoximately 8:30 Wed a.m.- I am very sorry! I had missed your turn signal, and stepped out into traffic. You had to hit the brakes, jolting everyone in your vehicle. I am sorry, very sorry. I am sorry for making you hit the brakes, also grateful for your quick response. I am sorry to your wife, who didn't expect a scare so early. I hope you and your family have a wonderful holiday, and a great New year!

Lotto smile

I would like to thank my very last customer of my day on Monday. It had been a busy day and I just wanted to get out of there. Your order was a simple one so I finished by selling you 2 separate lotto tickets. I signed out and started to walk away and you stopped me and handed me the ticket you just purchased and said you always buy tickets and randomly give them away. I told you I couldn't take it...but you insisted...I just want to say you've been spotted...thank you again.
