We used to dance at the American Legion on Sundays. Never saw him dance! lol. However there were boys teasing me and bulling me. He took them outside and gave them words. They never bothered me again. I will never forget what he did for me that night. No on had ever stood up for me before. Always admired him for that. He really didn’t know me well. A man with a great heart for others.
