I hurried into the local Learnguidepdf department store to grab1 some last minute Chirsmas gifts. 220-901 practice test I looked at all the people and grumbled2 Learnguidepdf CCIE 400-101 Dumps, to myself. I N10-006 practice test would be in here forever and I just had so much to do. Chirsmas was CCIE 400-101 Dumps, beginning to become such a drag. I 300-206 senss pdf kinda wished Cisco 300-070 PDF that I could 300-206 senss pdf just sleep through Chirsmas. But I hurried the best I CCIE 400-101 Dumps, could through all the people CCIE 400-101 Dumps, to the toy department. Once again I kind of mumbled3 to myself at the prices of all these toys, and wondered if the grandkids would even play whit4 them. I found myself in the doll aisle5. Out of the corner of my eye I saw a little boy about 5 holding a lovely doll.He kept touching6 her hair and he held her so 300-206 senss pdf gently. N10-006 practice test I could not seem to help myself. CCIE 400-101 Dumps, I just kept loking over at the little boy and wondered who the doll was for. Testprepwell Testprepwell Cisco 300-070 PDF I watched him turn to a Testprepwell woman CCIE 400-101 Dumps, and he called his aunt 300-206 senss pdf by name and said, “Are 300-206 senss pdf you sure Learnguidepdf I don’t have enough money?” She replied CCIE 400-101 Dumps, a bit impatiently, “You know that you don’t Learnguidepdf have enough money for it.” The aunt told the little boy not to go anywhere that she had to go Testprepwell and get some other things and would be back in a few minutes. And then Learnguidepdf she left the aisle. The boy 300-206 senss pdf continued to 220-901 practice test hold the doll. After Cisco 300-070 PDF a bit I Cisco 300-070 PDF asked the boy who the doll was for. He said, “It CCIE 400-101 Dumps, is the doll CCIE 400-101 Dumps, Learnguidepdf my sister wanted Cisco 300-070 PDF so badly for Chirsmas. She just knew that Santa would bring it. “I told him that maybe Santa was going to bring it . He 300-206 senss pdf said, “No, Santa can’t go where my sister is…. N10-006 practice test I Testprepwell have to give the doll Learnguidepdf Testprepwell to my Mama to take to her. N10-006 practice test “I 220-901 practice test asked him where his N10-006 practice test siter was. He looked at me with the saddest eyes and said, “She was gone Cisco 300-070 PDF to be with Jesus.

My Daddy Learnguidepdf says that Cisco 300-070 PDF Mamma is going to have to go be with her.” My heart nearly Testprepwell stopped beating. Then the N10-006 practice test boy looked at me again and said, “I Learnguidepdf told my Daddy to tell my Mama not to go yet. I told him to CCIE 400-101 Dumps, tell her to wait till I got back from the store.” Then he asked me if i wanted to see his picture. I told him I’d love 220-901 practice test to. He pulled out some picture he’d had taken 300-206 senss pdf at the front of Cisco 300-070 PDF the store. He said, “I want my Mama Testprepwell to take this with her N10-006 practice test so the dosen’t ever N10-006 practice test forget me. I love my 220-901 practice test Mama so very much Testprepwell and I wish she dind not have to leave me.But Daddy says she will need to 300-206 senss pdf be with my sister.” I saw that the little boy had lowered his head and had grown so qiuet. While he was not looking I reached into Cisco 300-070 PDF my purse Testprepwell and pilled out a handful of bills. I asked the little boy, “Shall we count that miney one more time?” He grew excited and said, “Yes,I just know it has to be Learnguidepdf enough.” So I slipped my money in with his and we began to CCIE 400-101 Dumps, 220-901 practice test count it . Of course it was plenty for the Cisco 300-070 PDF doll. He 300-206 senss pdf softly said, “Thank you Jesus for giving me enough money.” Then the boy said, “I just asked Jesus to give me enough money to buy this doll so Testprepwell Mama can N10-006 practice test take it with her to give N10-006 practice test my sister. And CCIE 400-101 Dumps, he heard my prayer. I wanted to ask him give 220-901 practice test for enough to buy my Mama a white rose, but I didn’t ask him, but he gave me enough to Learnguidepdf buy the 220-901 practice test doll and a rose N10-006 practice test for my Mama. She loves white rose Testprepwell so much. “In a few Cisco 300-070 PDF minutes the aunt came back and I wheeled my cart away. I could CCIE 400-101 Dumps, not keep from thinking about the CCIE 400-101 Dumps, little Learnguidepdf boy as I finished my shoppong in a ttally different spirit 300-206 senss pdf than when I had started. And 220-901 practice test I 220-901 practice test kept N10-006 practice test remembering a N10-006 practice test Testprepwell 220-901 practice test 220-901 practice test story I had seen in the newspaper Testprepwell several 300-206 senss pdf days Cisco 300-070 PDF earlier about a drunk N10-006 practice test CCIE 400-101 Dumps, driver 300-206 senss pdf hitting a Cisco 300-070 PDF car and killing7 a little girl and the Mother was 300-206 senss pdf in serious condition. The family was N10-006 practice test deciding on whether to remove 220-901 practice test the life support. Now surely this little boy did 300-206 senss pdf not belong Learnguidepdf with Cisco 300-070 PDF that story.Two days later I Testprepwell read in the paper Testprepwell where the 300-206 senss pdf Learnguidepdf family had disconnected the life support 220-901 practice test and the young woman had died. I could not forget the Cisco 300-070 PDF little 220-901 practice test boy and just kept wondering if the two were somehow connected. N10-006 practice test Later that day, I could not help myself and I Cisco 300-070 PDF CCIE 400-101 Dumps, went out and bought aome white roses and 220-901 practice test took them to the funeral home where the yough woman was .And there she was holding a lovely white rose, the beautiful doll, and the picture of the little boy in the store. I left there in tears, thier life changed forever. The love that little boy had for his little sisiter and his mother was Learnguidepdf Learnguidepdf overwhel. And in a split8 second a drunk driver had ripped9 the life of that little boy to pieces.

Aunt Ruth organized a Soup/Silent Auction for Rob Bales. Several of Frankfort’s Police officers served food to those that attended. There were many kinds of soup,hot dogs, pies, brownies, and drinks provided. It was a great turn out with approximately 150 people attending to honor Rob.
Rob at the age of 57 was diagnosed with ALS in February of this year. A disease that effects your nervous system that weakens muscles and impacts physical function. Rob has served on the Frankfort Police Department for 24 years and is respected by all. Rob wants to let people know the importance of getting the word out about ALS. He said it is so important that more people know about this disease for there is no cure for it. He said we must talk about it and get people more aware of it.
The Silent auction was a huge success by Auctioneer Rick Gates volunteering his time and Jeff Danner stepped up and helped Rick with modeling the items to be auctioned off. There was also a band that played music during the Dinner that all seem to enjoy.
Between the private donations and proceeds from the Silent Auction we were able to award Rob with almost $2700.00. What a great community we live in when we can all come together to help out someone in need.
Thank you for all that came out to show their support to Rob,he truly appreciated it. The music in the video below that is produced by Erick Dircks is by Randy Beard. Story provided by Tammy Danner, Photos and video by Erick Dircks
