Trucker Angels

[Netnorske]

We have a friend who lives close here in Everett, WA. She has been bravely battling cancer for some time now. She recently drove to Arkansas to pick up her three grandchildren and bring them home to her place as her daughter is battling drug problems.

After breaking down somewhere outside Kansas City, a trucker stopped to help her out. Once her mission was known to the truckers....they basically made sure she had a truck escort the entire way back to Washington! One truck was always behind her....and when he had to turn off, he handed her off to the truck behind him....and so on, and so on.

I always selfishly get pissed at truckers because they are in my way when riding, but to be honest, it's heartwarming to know they are as tight a bunch as we are and willing to help in such a monumental way! Kudos to those drivers and anyone here who is a part of that culture....my hat is off to you guys!
