Pam Brekke had spent days waiting for empty shelves to be restocked and searching for a generator. She said today that she'd traveled more than 30 miles to Orlando to a Lowe's Home Improvement store that had received a surprise shipment of a little more than 200 generators.
Within two hours, however, the generators were sold out and Brekke, who had been next in line, was empty-handed.
A heartbroken Brekke then began to cry. Ramon Santiago, who had gotten one of the generators but had not purchased it yet, noticed and insisted that she take his.
"She needs the generator," Santiago said. "It's OK."
Brekke shared with Santiago that it was her ailing father who needed the generator to power his oxygen supply. After giving him a hug, Brekke said she was overwhelmed by Santiago's generosity.
"That gentleman was a great gentleman right there," she said. "God will bless that man."
