Observations all along the line - Kimball & the Southern Panhandle First

Letter to the Editor

Kimball, you have left us speechless

Wow, I went in to pay our city bill the other day, Mrs. Baker pulls up our account and looks across the counter at me and says there’s no balance due. “There’s no balance due?” “Nope it’s been paid, there is actually a credit of $26.” I told her thank you and walked out the door but in my mind I was tearing up. How generous, I need to write a thank you to...? I drove around the block and walked back in to ask who had made the payment. The payment was anonymous. Could be anyone, I could walk right past them at the supermarket and not even know it, not even knowing that I owe them a thank you. To whoever the anonymous donation was made, I hope you’re reading this, Thank You!

Our family has been moved by this community with generosity such as the one described above. People who aren’t expected to help but do it out of the kindness of their heart. Most of you we will never be able to repay but can only hope that when the time comes, we will be able to show another family the same kindness and generosity as you have shown us. Words will never truly capture the gratitude we have. You have made us cry, you have made us smile, and you have made us speechless. We are so fortunate to live in such a caring community. Thank you to all those who have and to those who continue to help, pray, donate and support us. We are forever grateful.

The Hinton’s
