Who Gave The Shoes?
By Delbert Blickenstaff

Louise and I were in the This and That Shop at the Brethren Retirement Community (BRC) on December 5th.  Louise had selected some nice blouses from the collection of donated items.  I was looking at the small amount of men’s clothing when I noticed a pair of new white shoes.  I examined them carefully.  I could tell that they were new because they were still tied together and still had tissue paper stuffed inside.  But they were size 13.  (I wear size 9.) The price was $1.00.

I went home without the new white shoes.  Later that evening I was reading John Graham’s newsletter when I suddenly realized that someone under John’s supervision must wear size 13 shoes.  John is in charge of five houses in Dayton, one in Sidney, and one in Greenville.  So I called John and he said that he had a size 13 man.

So on the next day I went back to the This and That Shop, paid my $1.00, and got the new shoes.  My guess is that someone paid at least $80.00 for them.  I delivered them to Kathy Graham, but I can’t really finish my story until I find out who is the original donor. HELP!
