Thanks to Elgin snow angel
I'm an almost senior citizen with a few health issues but I'm still the primary person responsible for shoveling the snow.
During our last big snowfall a pickup truck came by, saw me struggling, backed up and plowed my driveway for free. On Feb. 10, the same person came by to plow the driveway again.
We're in the same rocky boat that a lot of people are in, so money isn't abundant. When I tried to give him a token monetary "thank you," he refused any compensation. He said he lived down the street from us on the northeast side of Elgin.
I'd like to thank this wonderful man who has really helped me.
