Lyndon Dale Flowers was looking for someone to spend Veterans Day with and he got creative to find a date. The Lewiston, Maine resident left a note at a local barbershop that read: “Would someone like to take a local disabled veteran to dinner on Veterans Day? No car. My treat.”
Someone from the barbershop posted the note on Facebook where it took off and offers started pouring in to share a meal with this man. The honor went to Sandy Washer, who drove 40 minutes with her family to take Flowers out to lunch.
The vet says the sweet gesture warmed his heart and reminded him “that there’s people out there that care.” Now he says he’s “already got eyes on Thanksgiving and Christmas for dinner,” and we’re pretty sure he’s not going to have any trouble finding folks that want his company for the holidays.
