We live in a wonderful town

Thank you! There are many good reasons for living in Cochrane, but the best reason is the people. Last week, my 86-year-old mother was walking near Walmart and was crossing the street with her walker when she hit some gravel and fell.

Thank you!

There are many good reasons for living in Cochrane, but the best reason is the people.

Last week, my 86-year-old mother was walking near Walmart and was crossing the street with her walker when she hit some gravel and fell. Her small bag of groceries and her purse spread over the street. Several people stopped, helped her up, gathered her things and helped her off the street. They offered to drive her to the urgent care, the hospital or home.

She has commented several times about how kind and thoughtful so many people were to her. We hear so much about the not so good things that happen, so much so that we sometimes forget that there are simply a lot of really good people in our beautiful town.

Thanks to each of you who helped my mother that day and I am sure often do such kind things for others but seldom get much thanks or credit.

Thank you.
