Dear Editor:
I am a 91-year-old veteran who liked to think he still had all his "marbles" - until now. About noon on Nov. 13, I was at Save-On-Foods in Lynn Valley Centre buying some supplies. I was sitting on my electric scooter at the checkout. As the clerk was entering the items in her cash register I suddenly realized I had left my wallet at home. I explained I had no means with me of paying for the items. Suddenly a middleaged lady at the adjacent checkout spoke to my cashier and paid for my items with her debit card.
I tried three times to get her name so I could send her a cheque but she would have none of it.
I was so wrapped up in trying to make restitution that I did not even say "thank you!" This letter is my attempt to convey my thanks to that unknown gracious lady.
