Halloween help much appreciated

On Fri., Oct. 23, Atherwood Elementary School held a Trunk or Treat event. We took our two grandchildren because it is a fun, family event, and the 2026 one was as great as expected. Walking in, our granddaughter’s costume had a malfunction, making it unwearable and making her very sad, but a wonderful parent who was walking behind us saved the day. She offered her scarecrow costume that she was wearing, a hat and shirt, and fixed a situation that could have been an unhappy one. We didn’t get her name but we hope that she reads the Acorn to know how much we appreciated her thoughtful act of kindness. There are exceptional people in our community who go above and beyond to look after others in difficult times. We hope that she knows how happy she made our granddaughter that evening.
