To the Editor:
This 80-year-old disabled veteran was deeply touched by the kind gesture of an anonymous donor after reading my letter in The SandPaper (“Almost Homeless.” 12/13). It brought tears to my eyes and in a way restored my faith in human kindness.
I really wasn’t expecting anything and I was beginning to believe that many Americans care not about the plight of the veterans in need. I had fallen on bad times and found no way to climb out of the hole that I had dug for myself.
