| When Josephine Cooper was growing up, she learned the importance of charity from her parents. Although they made a modest living for their family of 10, they insisted on sharing with those less fortunate. Half a century later, Mrs. Cooper became a beloved volunteer at the San Diego Food Bank, where she devoted herself to helping others. She organized and ran a distribution center from a church, helping it become the organization"s largest emergency food distribution center in San Diego. She was one of 25 outstanding senior volunteers in the nation selected and invited Washington D.C. to receive the award. "She was the main person who helped us make that program grow," said Mike Doody, former director of the Food Bank. "She had a way of getting people to work together and to work hard. She was determined and stubborn, but in a good way. She had a good heart." People knew her as "Grandma" because of her selflessness and her devotion to helping hungry children and families. "She reminded people of their Grandma." Doody said. As a widow with a young child in 1979, Mrs. Cooper was helped through a difficult financial time when the Food Bank provided her with groceries. "She devoted her life to giving back," said her daughter, Monica Cooper. It wasn"t unusual for a local church to call Mrs. Cooper to ask her to aid a needy family. "She would give people food out of her cupboard. Sometimes we would cook a meal for a family living out of their car," Cooper said. Although Mrs. Cooper was honored to receive the national award for her volunteer work, she said being able to help others was her reward. She died of liver disease and kidney failure, aged 93. | ||||||||||||||

| It was a warm March evening, and I"d just taken a seat on the bus that would take me home. It was nearly 6:00 PM, but the bus was not yet full and the driver gave no 1 that he intended to start the bus. A middle-aged woman took a seat opposite me. She was crying. Not speaking to anyone in particular, she 2 narrated her story. She had come to the city to visit her daughter. On the way to the terminal, a thief had 3 one of her bags. It had contained half of the money she"d brought with her. The other half was hidden under her blouse, so she 4 still had some money left. The bus conductor, driver, and other passengers listened to her tale. At this time, an old man 5 got on the bus. He sat in the seat directly in front of the woman. After a few minutes, all seats were 6 . The driver got behind the wheel and started the engine. The bus conductor collected tickets and began asking us where we were 7 . When he came to the old man"s seat, he became 8 and asked the old man Whether he had any money. The old man 9 that he did not. He explained that he 10 all his money this morning when he"d accidentally got on the wrong bus and now he was trying to go home. Upon heating this, the bus conductor 11 the old man to get off the bus. The old man was almost in tears as he begged the bus conductor to let him take that bus 12 he could get home before dark. The bus driver approached the old man, and repeated the conductor"s 13 to get off the bus. "Stop troubling him! Can"t you see he"s only trying to get home?" she interfered. "He doesn"t have any money!" the driver shouted. "Well, that"s no 14 to throw him off the bus," she insisted. Then she said, "How much is his fare?" The bus conductor mumbled the amount. "Fine," said the woman. She 15 inside her blouse, took out her 16 money, and handed the fares to the bus conductor. "Here"s his fare and mine. Just stop giving him a hard time." All eyes turned 17 the woman, who, just minutes before, had been crying over the money she"d lost. "It"s only money," she shrugged. By the time the bus rolled out of the terminal, she had given the old man bread and a dollar. She rode the rest of the way home 18 a Mona Lisa smile of peace and grace, and the money she"d lost 19 was forgotten. On the road of life, the politeness and smiles of 20 can lighten our loads and lift our spirits. How much sweeter the journey when we make it a little smoother and richer for others! | ||||||||||||||
