What a Mensch

(Community Matters) Had breakfast with my friend Diana Holford this morning.  She reminded me of a wonderful story she first told me last week.

While in a grocery check out line, hurried & running multiple errands — I don’t remember if her 3yo & 6yo were with her but you get the picture – and realized she’d forgotten her wallet.  Uggggh, we’ve all been there, the hurrieder I go the more behind I get. . . .   As she was asking the clerk to hold her groceries while she ran to the house, a man in line told her he’d pay.  She asked for his card so she could send a check and he insisted not, instead suggesting she pay it forward.  Wouldn’t you know, this mensch was Planned Parenthood’s Ken Lambrecht. No surprise there.
