Today, the AWESOME is in Murfreesboro, Tennessee. At 80, Lois Mayo left California for Tennessee, driving 2,000 miles with her cats in search of a fresh start and kinder community. With no plan beyond reaching her destination, she arrived in Murfreesboro after five days, feeling renewed despite financial uncertainty. Facing the possibility of living in her car, Lois remained hopeful. At a Walmart, she met employee Paris Barnes, who stepped in to help—securing temporary lodging, launching a fundraiser, and reconnecting Lois with her son. Inspired by compassion and generosity, Lois is now working toward a stable future, proving it’s never too late to start over and chase new dreams.
and THAT’S AWESOME…
