I am a single mom with three children who attend the Windsor Catholic school system. My son attends Holy Names High School and my two daughters attend St. Gabriel. The kids' dad passed away about a year and a half ago and the schools have been supportive during this difficult time. I would like to share with you how two very special teachers at St. Gabriel School went out of their way to do something special for my daughters and myself. The other day my girls came home from school and presented me with a black forest birthday cake that they made at school with the help of their former first grade teacher, Mrs. LeBlanc and their present fourth grade teacher, Mr. Rankin. These kind, wonderful teachers spent their time and money and put a proud spark in my daughters' eyes that has been missing as of late. The cake was the tangible gift but a far more important gift was received. Hats off and a big THANK YOU to all those teachers who go the extra mile for their students; especially Mrs. LeBlanc and Mr. Rankin!
submitted for a friend!
Sincerely
A proud blessed mom

Last night me an my family went out to dinner at gilligan's on walker road. That is my boys favorite restaurant. We were enjoying everything about our night out as a family, giggling, playing games an eating good food. People would look at us an just smile,they knew we were just having a great time. After a great dinner we proceeded to go pay for our meal,an the waitress said i need to have your bill please an have a great night. Our bill was 70$, i just stood there an didn't understand. She then said this lovely couple had paid for our bill. I was so shocked . I couldnt thank them enough, out of all the people in the restaurant they picked us. Im so happy to see that there are amazing people still in this world. To the couple that paid for our dinner, you made our night even more memorable.

Friday March 1, my husband was at fresh co on Wyandotte and Laporte. He collapsed in the parking lot, a wonderful lady ran in the store and got some firemen who happened to be shopping. I want to thank you all, unfortunately he did not make it, but I'm glad he wasn't alone at the end. Thank you again.

So I'm at Costco today in Windsor walking through the parking lot. I'm walking up the isle from my parking spot to the entrance.
This lady is at the back of her SUV with her huge box on a trolley, and the back hatch open. All I catch is the man who is beside her say something to the effect that it was good timing he came out when he did, so he could help her, seeing he is parked right next to her. Like I said, I was just walking by, but I saw him proceed to help the lady load this huge box into her SUV, and I heard her thank the man. I just thought that was sweet, and it put a smile on my face. Kindness, pass it on.

I want to thank a few people here. On Wed night I had to call 911, My husband was having some heart issues. Windsor EMS service arrived and they were amazing. I wish I had gotten their names, but the female, she was so good inserting the IV into my husband (he is deathly afraid of needles) that he didnt have time to react. Then at Hotel Dieu Ouellette Campus the medical staff were awesome. My husband was seen to quickly, medication administered and finally the paddles. His heart issues were righted, and we were out 4 hours after he was first taken to the hospital.

Dr. Thompson in the ER , all the nursing staff, thank you for having the most awesome bedside manners and allowing this wife to relax a bit. Thank you for taking such great care of my husband and for putting my mind at ease with the shocking thing.

Follow up He is now wearing a loop monitor for 2 weeks, and has a cardiologist appt on Mar 14 to see what caused the issues to begin with. Hopefully all this gets sorted and nothing like this ever happens again.

I was in an accident tonight on Banwell. To the lady who stopped to help, I wanted to say thank you. I didnt get your name bc I was freaking out but you were calm, soft spoken and exactly what I needed. Thank you so much. Without you I would have been lost.

I was with my Uncle and Aunt at Costco when we were leaving we realized the vehicle we were driving had a flat tire with my uncle being legally blind and neither my aunt or I knew how to fix the tire we werent sure what to do but then out of no where a gentle man came over and tried to use fix a flat that he got out of his own car and tried for 45 mins to get air in until he realised it wasnt gonna work so just as the gentleman made the decision to help by putting the donut on and take the other tire off for us another gentleman showed up and offered to help him so it could get changed faster we were so appreciative for the help considering it was very cold out. We would just like to thank these 2 good samaritans for coming to our rescue. You've been spotted in Windsor!!

Two dogs got out of their owner's home and were having a day of it exploring, except it's FREEZING outside. A FedEx employee called over the two animals and got them into the warmth and safety of his truck before delivering them back to the owner! Now THAT is some service!
