When a father checked in at an airport gate with his daughter who just turned two, he was told he needed to buy a last-minute ticket for the toddler to fly - once theyâre two they need their own ticket. But the desperate dad couldnât afford the $749 fare and was heartbroken, according to a bystander who shared the story in a Facebook post on the âLove What Mattersâ page.
Thatâs when a fellow passenger and good samaritan stepped forward and offered to purchase the ticket for the little girl. The generous stranger has been identified as Debbie Bolton, and she was moved to help after hearing the dadâs dilemma. But when the father asked for her name to repay her, she told him not to worry about it.
Bolton had hoped to stay anonymous after her good deed, but commenters to the post identified her. People who know her say theyâre not surprised by her gesture and this is exactly the kind of thing sheâd do. We love this story because she wasnât stepping up to get credit for helping, but because it was the right thing to do. We need more Debbie Boltonâs in the world today.
