Most of us feel compelled at various times in our lives to help someone else. We send a gift when a loved one has a baby or sometimes when a stranger loses all they own in a house fire. But figuring out just what to send, that perfect "gift," can make you want to give up on the idea altogether.
What you won't see in this story are the sleepless nights and series of concerned chats a certain Sherri had with herself and her loved ones struggling to figure out what she could send to comfort a Hurricane Katrina survivor. What you will see is her final choice. And her simple "gift" has touched not just one life but hundreds of lives.
We run across generous souls often in East Tennessee but when we ran across this story we knew it couldn't just live on by word of mouth or in a book, no this inspiring tale was something America needed to see.
