Re: Wisconsin Chit-Chat & Daily Check-in...
I'm sitting here just thinking about, who in my life left a memory that I still hold, even though I really did not know the person and most likely will never see the person again.
Two people come to mind. One way back in my elementary school days I can remember the crossing guard that use to walk us across the highway to get to and from school. I have no idea why I can remember him so well but I can. He use to give us a lollipop sometimes and really didn't say much more than hi and how are you but he was like a nice grandpa type of guy. For quite a while there was road construction and I was terrified of the large machinery, and he would walk me past the machines safely. Guess I never forgot how safe he made us feel.
Another would be the elderly lady greeter at our Walmart Store. For such a very long time she was always at the door greeting people as they came in. Finally she retired. It was only a few years ago that she left Walmart but I bet for many years to come I will remember her kind greeting as we would walk in. There was just something so sweet about her and she really made you feel as if you were walking into her home when she would say hi.
