Good People Doing Good Things — Small Acts of Kindness And The Homeless Mayor!
These are heroes. Thanks so much for sharing these stories.

See 23-Year-Old Help Scared Elderly Man Down Escalator”
“Published on Jun 22, 2017

The elderly man was frozen with fear as he stood atop an escalator at the Holyoke Mall in Holyoke, Mass. That’s when 23-year-old Alonzo Johnson stepped in, locking arms with the senior citizen and helping him down the escalator. The older man was terrified to get on because of a previous frightening experience he once had on an escalator, according to Johnson.”
