Hi Pamela, <\/p>\n
I went to Kapahulu Safeway to do some shopping, then to cash my mother’s monthly check at Central Pacific Bank, all within the same complex. When I couldn’t find my mom’s check, I figured I had just forgotten it at home.<\/p>\n
Later, when I returned home and started looking around, I realized I must have dropped her signed check somewhere. When I called Safeway Customer Service Desk, I was so relieved that they had it. Someone turned it over to them without leaving their name.<\/p>\n
I hope that person sees this so I can to say thank you so much for your honesty and kindness. May you have many blessings.<\/p>\n

Aloha Pamela, <\/p>\n
I parked in a metered stall at Kaimuki park on Waialae Avenue. When I was getting out of my SUV, a gentleman pulled up next to me in a gold or light-colored SUV (4Runner?).<\/p>\n
He said to take the stall he just vacated as it had about an hour’s worth of time on it! I thanked him, but unfortunately he left before I could get his name.<\/p>\n
Thanks to his kindness I had a great day and I wanted to pay it forward.<\/p>\n

Dear Pamela, <\/p>\n
I would like to thank a gentleman on a motorcycle who helped me get to the Kapolei Target.<\/p>\n
I asked this gentleman for directions while I was at an intersection waiting for the light to change.<\/p>\n
After he gave me detailed directions, I started to repeat it and that’s when he told me to follow him.<\/p>\n
He was in the left lane about to make a turn, so I know I took him from his original route.<\/p>\n
I followed him for a good seven to 10 minutes. I want to thank him again for his generous spirit and hope that help will always be there for him when he needs it.<\/p>\n

Dear Pamela, <\/p>\n
My grandson took me to do some shopping at Pearl City Foodland.<\/p>\n
When I was about to pay for my purchases, Rodney the cashier said the gentleman ahead of me gave $5 toward my purchases.<\/p>\n
I was so dumbfounded. I didn’t even see who was ahead of me.<\/p>\n
My grandson said the man probably did it because we let him go ahead of us since we had a big load. I didn’t get his name, but if he reads APPLAUSE, thank you!<\/p>\n
