Dearborn Moderator United States 96214 Posts	Posted 10/11/2023 4:46 pm Thanks, I think that it was meant to happen, I had never seen them in there before yesterday, and I knew right away that it was meant for him.

There is always someone that has been through a lot and a kind gesture like that can make a big difference. Thank you for your kindness and sharing the story with us. Report this Post to the Staff

hokiefan_82 Pillar of the Community United States 3649 Posts	Posted 10/15/2023 4:06 pm That's a beautiful gesture, Dearborn. My father was a fully disabled veteran and something like that would have meant the world to him, though in his condition he would not have been able to really give his gratitude. You would have seen it in his expression, however. Dang, I think I got something in my eyes... Member of SPMC, FCCB, ANA and ANS.

Dearborn Moderator United States 96214 Posts	Posted 10/15/2023 6:10 pm Thanks everyone for the comments. @hoki: Sorry about your father, that is why I had to do this small thing I did. And for the father I gave my coin to, I did see it in his eyes as well. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.

mike31093 Valued Member United States 354 Posts	Posted 10/18/2023 4:35 pm Well, I've always worn my heart on my sleeve. So me choking up while (and even now) reading Dearborn's account of his VA visit is no surprise to me. Well done, my friend. Well done. Report this Post to the Staff
