Feller up the road from me was hard up for wood to burn in his fireplace since he had lost his job and could no longer afford the gas for the furnace.Several people in the neighborhood would take him a little here and a little there,I even took him some from an old oak tree that had gotten blown over in the woods.A couple of cold months went by and noone took him any wood, and all he could do was complain about how bad his neighbors were.Not one person got a thank you,not that it was expected, but the guy made no effort to show his appreciation for what he recieved.It was mentioned to one of his "friends" that he needed some food, becuase he hadnt had anything to eat for a couple of days, so a few of the good neighbors brought him some food.Guess what he did? Complained about it! Now the guy has a job!Making a good living, but has yet to show his appreciation for what he received when he needed it,even made a very rude comment about a very poor family in our neighborhood. He has no friends now, and hardly anyone acknoledges hes alive. I guess maybe your relative wanted them to put in on the fire and clean out the ashes as well?
