4. So cool. Reminds me of a local "Spider Man"

Sunday

I worked in an office with a young woman who had lost a son to leukemia. The child's favorite superhero was Spider Man.

His older brother periodically dons a Super Man costume to go and visit other children in the hospital ward. It makes their day and gives them a few minutes of levity. This young man IS a super hero, costume or not.

It's good to be reminded that there are good people in the world still. Thanks for sharing the story of the Greenville Spider Man, Steve.
