#1 God bless him. Isn't this what the Christmas spirit (and good karma) is all about?

#2 Awesome. What a classy character. I hope his personal health turns around. Personifies what Twain once said:

"Grief can take care of itself, but to get the full value of a joy you must have somebody to divide it with."

#3 Inspirational. If I can afford to part with a couple of hundred I may just do something like this myself here in my hometown.

(I love to do stuff like this anyway)

#4 A wonderful man. Thanks for the story, Fred.

In a similar (if considerably smaller) vein, trailing daughter #1, having reached the stage when she remembered how exciting it had been for her when slightly younger to find a coin on the sidewalk or in the parking lot, started bring her spare change on shopping trips to scatter for other little children to find.
