捡钱包千方百计寻失主 19岁少年传递善意

Dee Harkrider is a grandmother of seven who lives a poor life. Recently, she went to the Walmart to buy something. After she put what she bought into her car, she left her wallet in the shopping cart, then drove away. She didn’t even realize she’d left the wallet behind.

19-year-old Delivontae visited Walmart right after Dee and spotted her wallet in the shopping cart. He opened the wallet and found Dee’s license, but with no phone number to contact her, he turned to the Internet. Once he matched her picture with the one on her driver’s license, he sent her a message. Dee didn’t reply, so Delivontae reached out to her friend Elaine, who’d recently interacted with Dee on the Internet. It certainly took some work to track down the wallet’s owner, but Delivontae kept finding information about her! 

After Elaine knew this, she called Dee and asked if she knew a young man named Delivontae Johnson. Dee then called Delivontae and they arranged to meet at a restaurant, about a 20-minute drive for the teen. At the restaurant, Delivontae handed over the wallet and Dee pulled a $20 from it to give him as a reward.

Delivontae says it felt “great” to help someone in need, and encouraged others to perform acts of kindness when presented with the chance to brighten someone’s day. He believes that what he did to help Dee was just the right thing to do.

The two have now become friends, visiting each other’s churches and meeting family members. Dee even had lunch with Delivontae’s mom, Rachel Johnson, and found the apple hadn’t fallen far from the tree. These two families are now united by kindness and mutual(相互的) respect, and that’s a beautiful thing!
