Your own Christmas story

| December 25, 2013

You guys made this happen. One of our ninjas sent us a message from the folks at Honor Flight, Myrtle Beach about Calvin Harrison, a 91-year-old World War II veteran asking for cards and Christmas wishes for Calvin. I guess y’all responded;

Thousands of cards, gifts and even heartfelt letters pile in by the bundles, all to say thank you. They’re saying thank you to Calvin Harrison, a 91-year-old World War II veteran who is terminally ill

Lisa Hyatt, Calvin’s social worker said, “We have more good days than bad… A lot of the times now he smiles.”

The outpouring of love and support gas lifted his spirits this holiday season.

Hyatt said, “Watching him open those cards and go through those arrangements, that was a Christmas present for me.”
