Ben says thank you to Frank and waves hello

Posted by larry@stinescorner on July 10, 2012 at 14:52:18 from (71.251.35.49):

A while ago I posted a story of my sick uncle who was in a nursing home,asking me to bring him some farming newspapers.I didnt understand why,because he was not a farmer or tractor guy. When I went to see him,we talked awhile and I said I brought your news papers. He said they are not for me, they are for my friend Ben, who had to sell his farm and misses it. He said, "go out to the lunch room and get him." Then Ben came in the room, and his eyes lit up when he saw the newspapers. My uncle said, "Here, now you will have something to read." We talked about Ben's Farmall tractors, and when I left, my uncle said, "Thanks a million." My uncle passed away 2 days later. Well, the story gets better. I recieved in the mail a box from a fellow Yesterday Tractor member. In the box was a large collection of red power magazines. He said, "I read your post, and I would like Ben to have these magazines." So my wife and I took them to Ben. As he opened the box, his eyes lit up! The first magazine had an M on the front page. He said, "What a tractor, the one with the diesel could do anything. Then he saw a Super H which he said were good tractors. They had a fast high gear, good for raking hay. He saw an old Farmall with rubber tires, and explained to my wife that it used to have steel wheels, but they would cut them off and put rubber tires on them. Ben said to say thank you to Frank, and wanted me to tell him that there are other farmers in this nursing home and he will pass them around. Thanks to this site for all the nice friends we have met on here, it is so great to meet all of you, and know that there is such kindness in the world.
