When Linda arrived at the airport in Atlanta, her friend, Gary, was there, but it took about an hour and a half for the two of them to get together because of a mix-up. Gary had arranged for a hotel room for Linda to rest while waiting for her flight to Johannesburg, but because of their delay in meeting up, there was no time to go to the hotel. As they were waiting to board the flight, a woman nearby must have sensed the situation, and she offered to switch seats with Linda and give her a seat in first class. The airline had already arranged for Linda to be in first class, but that the woman offered was lovely.
And that's as far as what we know takes us.

God bless Gary.
ReplyDeleteGod bless the first class woman.
Truly a classy and holy action.
God bless Linda as she journeys home.
Grandmere --this story is full of grace and hope. Thank you.
Grace upon grace, margaret. Love all around.
ReplyDeleteYes, that woman was first class in the best way! Usually people in first class don't even look up as folks wend their way to the back.
ReplyDeletePrayers for Linda's safety as she returns home.
Susan, for me, this was a lesson that there are good people in every class.
ReplyDeleteI was not sure if Linda would make it to the day of her flight, but she did, and I believe she will hold on until she gets to Zambia and sees that the foundation carries on, and then she will let go.
