In today's world, with all the problems and stresses, sometimes incredible acts of kindness go unnoticed.

I saw a transit operator while on break at the downtown terminal helping a blind senior in the pouring rain transfer from one bus to another.

I saw this and immediately took the liberty of taking a picture.

When everyone else was running to avoid getting wet, this Orillia Transit operator, Chris Stubbs, took the arm of a blind senior and ensured she was safe and reached her bus.

This is an example of the "good" in society.

Great work Chris!
