The best quote from the story:
Quote:
"It was hard to face nothing and having to accept the charity and the goodness of people in our church and town," says John. "But as one of the characters in the new Hank book says, 'well Mr., if you don't like taking charity in the Texas Panhandle don't let your house burn down because if it does, you're going to get help.'"
Through the lens of generosity, John Erickson found his happy ending, "We can't expect to escape hardship and tragedy but when it happens, we are not alone."
