Grocery Store Helper

I am not sure if anybody has heard about the man who has decided to "pay it forward," in Sioux Falls, but he is a guy who wants to make a difference to young families. I was at Hy-Vee and a the Customer Service lady came to my cashier and handed her twenty dollars telling her that a man had asked that it helped pay for my grocery bill. My son of , 5 months at the time, and I were checking out and getting quite confused. So I went and asked the Customer Service lady why she gave us that money towards my purchase. She explained to me that a man had asked her to, and then just similed. Of course, still confused I smiled and said, "Oh, well thanks." And then walked out, calling my dad frantically thinking it was him, to find out that he was at home eating dinner. A week later I hear on the radio that there was a man giving twenty dollars to a random young family every so often to help pay for there bills. It was his way of giving back. So this morning when I went to get baby food from the same Hy-Vee, I checked out and went the the Customer Service lady and gave her ten dollars asking her to give it to an older person for their grocery bill from anonomys. I don't know if she ever did, but if she did I know that I touched somebody's heart today.
