You never know when a random good deed would prompt something more intense than you could envision
Joyce Rhinehart took her grandson to an Ice Cream Shop for a treat after his tennis lesson. As they were going to leave, she saw a pleasant looking family enjoying ice cream together.
She suddenly wanted a photo of them and asked if she could take that picture. They agreed.
She said in a Facebook post:
“I took this photo and after that gave my telephone to my girl and advised her to send the photo to their phone.”
A couple days after her encounter with the family, Joyce was astounded to get an instant message from an unknown number. She checked the message and felt chills go through her spine.
