 To the considerate young man,

Thank you to the young man, I don’t know his name, who helped me with my car problem at noon Nov. 8.

I was leaving at lunchtime and lost my brakes near the IVCC entrance and pulled up on the berm. A couple of cars went by and the students made remarks and laughed.

Then a young man pulled up behind me and offered to help. He crawled under my car to check for the problem. He said he saw a hole and probably brake fluid leaking.

He then offered to use his car as a bumper. He said he would drive in front of me to the IVCC auto shop and if I couldn’t stop, it was okay to run into him. "I have an old car, it’s fine," he said.

I did follow him and got the car to the shop without having to hit him.

What a sweet young man. His mother should be so proud of him. It was so nice that he took the time.
