Good Samaritans rally to help woman

Earlier in September, two thieves stole all the money of a 94-year-old Loxley woman. She had saved the money to paint her home. Now some Good Samaritans have come to her rescue.

The house used to be a dingy gray color, but not anymore. People in the community came together over the weekend to repaint the outside of her home. Her neighbors and church members volunteered to do the work, at no charge.

“It just done me good. I was just overjoyed with it. A lot of them I knew, and I a lot of them I didn’t know,” said Hayes.

Hayes says about 100 people came out to do the work.

“They cut down bushes and piled them up. The fire department said they would leave it there two weeks and they would come back and burn them,” said Hayes.

The grandmother says this is a good example of a bad situation turned good.

“It put a deeper love in my heart for them,” said Hayes.

Hayes says this tells her that criminals are not alone in the world, but Good Samaritans are here as well.
