Gerald Tyler’s Story

As a regular at my local Walgreens I’ve become on a first name basis with many of the employees there. During one of my casual conversations with them, one of them had mentioned that his apartment had been robbed. While life is more important than possessions, I know the toll it takes on people to feel unsafe in their own neighborhoods and how it can make people jaded. He never let it though and continued to always have a friendly demeanor and positive forward in life. While it won’t make up for how much was taken from him, I’m glad that this was able to help provide him with some Christmas cheer and to remind him that he matters.
