I was busy this week so didn’t get around to this until now, but I want to say a big thank you to the man driving the #20 bus last Friday night around 9:30pm at Barrington and Spring Garden. A lady was getting on the bus when the wind whipped her bus pass, ID, bank card, (everything in her holder) out of her hand and it flew over the high fence into the yard. You and a passer by gathered up her things, and then jumped over the fence to get the remaining items. That lady works as a cleaner in my building, and I talk to her a lot. She doesn’t make much money and I know it would have been expensive for her to replace all those items, so thanks so much for actually taking the time to get off the bus and help her out. People like you redeem Metro Transit! lol —Random Acts of Kindness Rock
