“People of Madras, Oregon and around the world, I want you to know what a gem you have here in this community. The owner of this business embodied the finest of human qualities as he paid for the breakfasts of an entire bus load of JROTC cadets at the local Brown Bear Diner this morning. His incredible generosity was performed with discretion, and he may feel uncomfortable at this public acknowledgment, but I think it’s important for people to be reminded that there are fine, generous, humble, and kind people demonstrating exceptional character in this world every day in quiet, yet impactful ways. Let’s be thankful for them. Let’s be them.”
