Good Samaritans

This is a note to thank the wonderful California good Samaritans who found me on Venice Boulevard on Nov. 23 at 2 p.m. I had put my belongings in my rental car trunk so I could walk to the beach to take pictures. When I returned after an hour or so, all my belongings and purse were gone. Everything I owned was gone and the only thing I had on me was my camera and $5 in my pocket.

This lovely couple that happened to be walking by my car saw my distraught behavior and comforted me. The man called the police with his cellular phone and then gave me $40. That enabled me to eat dinner that night and put gas in the car to get back to the airport. I was too upset to get their names. I will pass their kindness on to other people in trouble.
