Thanks for sharing a wonderful story of human kindness. I can just see the wonder in the eyes of the next generation when they read this letter and look at this beautiful watch. What a wonderful beginning to a New Year.

Kabu, we who want to like people don't often get such a good reason

to do so! 

It seems that more and more, money and profit is valued over things of real worth, like true kindness and generosity.

That is astonishing, and as it should be. That in itself is unusual.

What a nice thing to do. They are gentlemen in the best sense of the word. Happy New Year to you, and to them.
