Re: Passing it forward
I try to do it whenever I can. Buy peoples dinner at restaurants. Bought I little boy and his mother donuts the other day. I just walk out and don't tell them. I always here about it the next time I'm at that store. Had a member on here get cut with cheap cut off wheel. I set him up with name brand ones and new set of safety gear and assorted grinding stuff. Wish I could do more. Want to take one saturdays pay a month and donate it to local shelters and churches.

Rick is a great guy !!! he has helped me out before and I have met alot of great people on here and tried to help when I can, I think its great when you can help someone out its getting harder to find great people like the ones on here !!!!

Mark Shank (Big Shank) called me a week or so ago and ask me what size helmet I wore. Well, a week ago he called again and said that he had purchased me a NEW one. I was very startled and ask why and he just said " because you have helped me out so much" What a bunch of great people

My son does this also. This is one of the few years he actually accepted presents from friends. Usually it is presents from family. Then he tells his friends to bring something for childrens home or st. Jude. He just turned 8 on the 11th

Re: Passing it forward
I was taught this from childhood on and practiced it all my life. Like some of you I gave away more than I will ever get back. However it does the soul good to know you did what you could when you could. I once gave a jump start to a man at the hospital parking lot, he told me that I was the only one out of five he had asked to help him. After getting it started he asked "how much do I owe you?" When I told him all I ask in return is that you help someone someday and remember me helping you. He looked at me like I was some kind of fool, got in his truck and without a word drove away.Some folks just dont get it and probably never will.
I will add my thanks to Harold for sending something of value to someone he doesnt know and I hope he knows that if I have something he needs, its his.

Re: Passing it forward
I keep stuff that I no longer have any use for but, it's still a good piece; (whatever it is).
The NEED to give it to somebody so it gets used is compelling because I simply can't just throw it away, lol.
