Editor,
On Tuesday, September 28, 2021, we stopped at the Kamloops Costco Store on our way home to Williams Lake. My husband left the store ahead of me with a loaded buggy. When I came out, he was pacing back and forth with two women, with all eyes searching the ground. Apparently, when he was removing his mask in the parking lot, he launched one of his hearing aids near the car where the two ladies were about to drive away. He was rather surprised to have two total strangers volunteer to help him search! One of the ladies even took the time to report the lost hearing aid to someone in the store. I joined the search, to no avail, and we were thinking perhaps the hearing aid had been run over, when suddenly, one of the women spotted it in a traffic area. Needless to say, my husband was extremely appreciative and impressed! We didn’t find out their names, but they did say they were from Merritt.
So…a BIG thank you is going out to the two kind, caring ladies in the black car! Both of you deserve a huge bouquet of roses! We hope you see this.
