LETTER: Nigel says thanks to the strangers who helped him in South Surrey

Editor,
On the morning of May 6th I was walking down 24th Avenue, next to Peninsula Village, stumbled and fell.
A number of people stopped to help me, and two young ladies in particular stayed with until an ambulance arrived, quite some time, insisted I remain seated, found something for me to sit on instead of the cold ground. One of them brought me orange juice and a muffin because I had not eaten anything this morning.
Ladies, I want you to know how much I appreciate your caring, I would love to thank you personally and let everyone know what good people you are.
Blessings,
Nigel Potts
