One would not think one deg of roofing nails in a truck
bed on the freeway would cause such havoc but
'the driver hit a bump. Now this was before 1991.
I was with my hubby in our pickup holding Lisa
Rose on my lap Our son was in school and he
was to go to grand mas house if we were late
getting home. We were on our way to Los Angeles
on a business trip,' '
The nails flew all over annd suddenly people were
braking right ant left.Fifteen cars were stalled nails
in all four tires. Our truck was also nailed.
A lovely dark skinned man in a chauffeur driven
Roills 'Rocye was not afftectel He insisted on calling
a tow ruck to tp haul our truck to dawne service station,]to
have new tires.
He took the three of us to this sevice
station to see that we got new tires. but while t hey]
were putting o n new tires he drove us to a fancy
restaurant in L''A and paid for a wonderful meal for
us. He had paid for the tires too in spite of my husbands
protest.
?Then he took us back to the service station and our
truck was ready to go He even phoned my mom's to
see if our son had got to her house okay
Hus name was Karem Omar "sherif a multimillionaire
from the East some where. It turned out that the company
tthat my husband had gone to L'a to see was owned by this man, He
himself authorized the branch of his s company
in-our city to pay my husband x amt of dollars for land scraping
to be done in two weeks.
We were thrilled to be home and have our two kids safe.
What a d ay that Mr Sheriff was like an angel to us and
he spent all that money on three strangers and refused
to take our money. WE marveled at our luck that day
and my hubby said
"God is looking out for us Patttytricia believe it"
and he must have been"

that is also a good point to note when people start getting all negative about all those from the east, they are NOT all like that. you met a wonderful man that day, one that aught to inspire us all to pay it forward
