A good neighbor

Tonight I spent a few hours with a good friend. After treating ourselves to frozen yogurt we went to her Grandma's house to look at some of her recent pictures.

On our way in, we ran into her grandmother's neighbor, Sheldon. He has been grandma's neighbor for a number of years and was excited to see that her granddaughter was in town. He knows how much grandma loves her.

Then Sheldon said this, "We keep a good eye out for your grandmother. She's moving around, she's doing well." 

In that moment I was really struck by his genuine care for grandmother and her well-being. Grandma is going to turn 84 tomorrow (Happy Valentine's birthday!) and it's nice to know that even in a big city like Los Angeles, neighbors still care and look out for one another.
