Thirty years ago, his world almost fell apart. He had surgery, was fired, and was informed by the IRS that his employer had not paid employment taxes.
After a few weeks, he saw a flyer about a Japanese festival. Although a physical and emotional wreck, he decided to go.
There, he met a Japanese gentleman with whom he chatted for hours.
A few months later, he came home to find a bouquet of flowers and a letter at his door.
It was from that same friend. Inside the letter was a check for $10,000 to help him through a rough patch.
Sixteen years later, he met a family that had been evicted from their home and needed $5,000 to close the escrow on a new house.
Without hesitation, he handed them a check for the full amount. They call him their angel, but he remind them that he, too, once had an angel. (Hassmik Mahdessian, Glendale, CA)
