  • In this installment of our series, "A More Perfect Union," we take a look at an unexpected but powerful friendship. See how an 82-year-old widower was touched by an innocent question of a 4-year-old in the canned food aisle of a grocery store, just when he needed it most. Steve Hartman reports.

      Tara Murphy I think it’s beautiful. Sad he passed yes but at the same time I’m happy he spent his last days with love in his heart. I’m especially happy he is now reunited with the love of his life.

      that's sad, but i am happy he got a last hug in. (also, yes, i'm convinced his wife decided "you need to go out on a HAPPY note if your heart doesn't melt for this kiddo you aren't the dude i married" and helped arrange their first meeting and gave him a big hug and kiss when they met back up in heaven/valhalla/etc.)

Ms.Hellen lives alone and doesn't get around well but when Isaac walks in the door I can see her come alive, the smile and energy she gives off is heartwarming and I enjoy going over and visiting her.

I consider why he could be alone, but instead if feeling sad and speculating about why he was alone, I'm glad he has friends who make him light up with joy now. My point, don't be sad, be happy they're all happy now 💖

      You are so right! Relationships with older people a wonderful thing to help encourage and cultivate for our children. She does deserve a lot of credit, but I do agree the Holy Spirit seems to have been working here. When I was young, in the 1960s, I found the neighborhood "old lady" in both of the towns where I grew up. When my child was little, he also found a special friendship with a neighborhood man. They had much to offer one another!

    I had an "old person" when I was 10. He moved into the house next door and I saw him struggling to get a package. I begged my mom to let me help him and we have been very close since then. Everyday I came home from school he was outside ready to say hi to me. We got him a garden for Christmas and I helped him take care of it every day. We started doing vacations together, we did holidays, birthdays, dinners, everything. Its like ther's a hole in my life and he was made to fill that empty space!

    I met my “old person” at church when I was Nora’s age. Half the time, we couldn’t get through a sermon without him turning around, looking at me and popping his dentures out as a way to get me to laugh really loud. He’d arrive at church 30 minutes early, wait for me to finish helping my grandma clean up her Sunday school class, and we’d go set up for children’s church. We’d meet after church for lunch. He’d color on the kid’s menu with me. He helped me learn how to read really early on. Help me sound out really big words. Was sure to let me know that I was unstoppable. That I could do ANYTHING.
    I’m 25, and my “old person” is gone now. But I could never be sad, because he taught me so much. Certainly taught me that you can have a bit of fun in serious situations. He was the church jokester.
    At his memorial, they played a video of him popping out his dentures. Out of the 300 that attended, some giggled, but they were all looking at me. I was the one cracking up. That then lightened the mood, and everyone knew they could actually laugh. His wife looked back at me, mouthing a thank you. I didn’t realize that was a relief she needed in the moment.

    This happened to me last year. I had gotten some bad news from my Dr. and stopped at the store on my way home. A little girl riding past me in the cart reached out and touched my arm. She told her Grandma to stop and reached over and took my hand. I was shocked, she had the biggest angelic grin as she excitedly told me her name was Anna. Well, I couldn't help but smile back and tell her my name. For the next 5 or 6 min she told me all about her life experiences as a 3 year old. She told me jokes, we sang cartoon theme songs right there in the cereal isle of Kroger's. She was so delightful that i'd forgotten my sour mood. Her mom joined us and we discovered we have a lot in common. The whole family have become my friends. Anna comes to play dates with my niece. They will be pirate princesses when they grow up.

    So many people just forget older people. Like this man said he has grandchildren but they are grown. That shouldn't stop the love from flowing.

Imagine what our kindness would do to change the world.
