The world needs more people who are truly kind and caring. Yesterday it was about 11:00 p.m. _36_ my telephone rang. The number was that of a Best Western Hotel. _37_ I don’t pay attention to this type of call. _38_, this time, for some reason, I went ahead and answered it.
The man on the _39_ end asked if I knew Samuel K., my 91-year-old grandfather. I didn’t _40_ why I was the one he had called. The caller went on to tell me that I was the only _41_ listed in my grandpa’s phone book.
The _42_, Mr. Mason, was the manager of the hotel at which my grandpa had shown up, wanting to rent a room. The _43_ was that my grandpa had no money with him. He was _44_. He had been going _45_ else but had taken the wrong bus and _46_ 100 miles from home. My grandpa just wanted me to tell Mr. Mason that he was a(n) _47_ guy and would pay the money once he got home.
The manager did all he could to help my grandpa, since he didn’t want to _48_ my grandpa, and wanted him to spend a _49_ night. Not only did he take the time to _50_ me, but he also charged just $39 to let my grandpa _51_ safely and fortably overnight. The rooms in that _52_ normally go for about $140! And then the staff there all _53_ him until my uncle could drive the 100 miles to pick him up!
This is just one more _54_ to show that there are still good people out there. Everywhere you go, you can find someone who _55_ . Thanks, Mr. Mason!
