Susan Guy, a Domino’s pizza delivery driver in Memphis, delivered pizzas to an elderly customer, Jean Wilson, who for every day for three years called in a pizza order. When Jean Wilson didn’t order her daily pizza for three days, Susan Guy went to her customer’s house. When no one answered her repeated knocking on the door, Guy called 911. The police broke down the door and found Jean Wilson had fallen and had been trapped on the floor for three days. Guy suspected something was wrong because her own mother had twice fallen and been stuck on the floor. Jean Wilson is in the hospital and expected to recover fully. It’s people like Susan Guy, who take the time to care and check on elderly people living alone, who deserve our praise and admiration.

Good for her. Nice one.
I’m always impressed when someone goes out of their way to help a stranger in need, Jeff. I’ve heard that Domino’s is giving Susan Guy an all-expenses paid vacation for her Good Deed.
And may I nominate a homeless man here who went to great lengths to return a ring a woman had mistakenly given him along with some spare change.
Nomination noted, Patti. I hope the attention on the homeless man’s honesty brings him some good fortune.
This was on the national news a couple of nights ago, NBC I think, in their “making a difference” segment. Sure is nice to see people being helpful instead of mean or worse.
There are plenty of good people in the world, Rick, but the transgressions of the mean and cruel people get most of the attention. That’s the reason I honor people who act unselfishly.
Susan Guy seems like a fine and impressive human being.
Jean Wilson is also impressive. Eating pizza every day for three years? That woman must have a stomach tough enough to crush diamonds with.
I could eat pizza every day, Drongo. One of my old girl friends once told me, “You could eat a rock.”
