‘It touched my heart and my heart cried in joy,’ said Don Wheeler, who uses a wheelchair
A disabled Ohio man said his “heart cried in joy” after he looked out his window to see an Amazon delivery driver shoveling snow off his ramp for him.
Shoveling snow is still something that Don Wheeler still does, despite using a wheelchair for 20 years, but he said it takes him hours, or sometimes even two days. So after he got a message from Amazon that his package was out for delivery, he thought it might just be easier to meet the driver outside.
“I started hearing noises of somebody shoveling. I was like, ‘Is somebody shoveling my ramp?’ I looked out the window and it was the Amazon driver,” Wheeler told WEWS-TV .
Wheeler said he went outside to thank the man, but said that the driver just smiled and kept on shoveling.
He told the outlet, “He didn’t give me a name. He didn’t give me, ‘Hey, post me on this so I can get the likes,’ it was purely from the heart. There’s many times when I’m out here for those hours, plow trucks will drive by people walk by with snow plows, neighbors will watch me. Nobody will walk up and help.”
