[QUOTE="uncle money bags, post: 2574551, member: 8377"] From the Staten Island Advance [url]http://www.silive.com/northshore/index.ssf/2014/07/good_news_lowes_employees_come.html[/url] In 1971, I stepped on a land mine in Vietnam and lost both legs above the knee. For the past two years, I have been waiting to receive a new wheelchair from the Veterans Administration. In addition, I have been told that I am not entitled to a spare wheelchair. On the evening of July 7, my wheelchair fell apart again, while shopping at Lowe's Home Improvement Center in on Forest Avenue in Mariners Harbor. Three employees, David, Marcus and Souleyman jumped to my assistance immediately. They placed me in another chair while they went to work. They took the wheelchair apart and replaced the broken parts and told me, "We're going to make this chair like new."* I left 45 minutes after closing hours in my wheelchair that was like new.
