Man captures grocery store employee's act of kindness

GREENVILLE, SC – We hear about a lot of feel-good stories in the news, but not nearly enough. Especially during this time when the country has been through so much sadness.

Now, more than ever, is the time to learn more about the good that is happening, rather than the bad. Facebook user Bo Graf shared a heartwarming photo of a grocery store employee helping an elderly woman walk across the Ingles Markets parking lot in Greenville, South Carolina on Monday.

"This weekend left me with such doubt and sadness for Our America!" Graf wrote. "God put me at this place, this moment in time for a reason. Maybe it's simply to capture this moment, maybe to change the way I look at the world today and the kids of tomorrow, or perhaps how I could change the way I live each day; there are so many reasons that put me in this brief moment."

Graf found out that the man in the photo is Ingles Markets employee Brandon Rollins. He told Rollins that what he saw him do was more than just helping the lady walk in the parking lot.

"It touched my life as well as I hope touches all of your lives. I personally haven't seen anything like this in years and thought everyone should see/feel this moment as well. This is how America should be! And hopefully this is the America of tomorrow!!!" Graf wrote.

The next day, Ingles Markets responded with a photo of Rollins holding a cake his co-workers made for him.

"Ingles associate Brandon Rollins from our Cherrydale-Greenville SC Ingles store is thanked by is co-workers for his example of kindness that made the news," the Facebook post read.

"Great job Brandon! You are a wonderful example of a gentleman which is rare in today's world," Facebook user Emily Turner Forrest wrote.

"I can't stop thinking about that pic! Such a beautiful gesture from a gentle giant. God bless him! Thank you young man for reminding us that all it takes to make this world a better is to show a little kindness," Patsy Heard Hunt wrote.
