The Ohio Good Citizen Thread

WWJD with a big bag of money?

A couple in Akron, Ohio, wish to remain anonymous after finding $12,000, reports the Akron Beacon Journal. The woman, 63, told police they discovered a tan cloth bag during their evening walk and took it to police, because it was "what Jesus would have done." She might not be aware of the general ethic of police in the time of Jesus, but her point is pure. And Akron police found the rightful owners, who also were not identified. "My father was a minister," the woman who found it said, "and he always told me: 'Just do the right thing.' " Wait, her father was Spike Lee?

LOL, I get it.

I don't get it. Could you clue me in? Seems like they did a nice thing. What am I missing?

It's just hard to find good citizens in Ohio (or at least those who make the news). There's always an exception or two, though.

But they were really from Michigan....

Food for students

Charlie and Joan Dorow have a whole lot of thanks to spread around for those who supported the Peanut Butter & Jelly Outreach that benefits students at Akron’s Mason Community Learning Center. The campaign provides low-income students with food every Friday to take home for their weekend breakfasts, lunches and snacks.

“Besso Clinic of Chiropractic in Stow each year holds Patient Appreciation Days,” Joan Dorow said. “On a scheduled day the patients receive free treatments all day. All the clinic asks is that each patient bring in food items or give a monetary donation, which they in turn donate to PB & J. This year over $800 and a pickup truck of kid-friendly food items were collected.

“Also, St. Martha/St. Mary Circle at St. Mary’s Church in Hudson put together 50 Halloween-decorated bags to be given to the children. The bags included their kid-friendly food items to eat on Saturday and Sunday and also special treats for Halloween for the children.”
