TELL ME SOMETHING GOOD: School Bus Driver Makes Special Deliveries
For nearly 20 years, Joyce Brown has been transporting students to and from school, but during the pandemic, she’s got a new role. The Richmond, Virginia school bus driver is now delivering meals to schools around the city and one day during her rounds, she spotted an elderly woman walking to get meals for her grandchildren at their school.
Brown pulled over and met 80-year-old Evelyn Bullock, who told her it takes her about 30 minutes to make the trek to pick up breakfast and lunch for her grandkids. “I am a two-time cancer survivor,” the grandma explains. “I also have arthritis and I fall a lot.”
So the kindhearted bus driver decided to help Evelyn out and now delivers breakfasts and lunches for her grandchildren so she doesn’t have to make the 30-minute walk everyday. “I never expected it,” the grateful granny says. “She’s just a blessing to me and I think she is just an awesome person.”
