我的发现
A 93-year-old retired soldier is being praised① now because he uses his talents to give back to his community.
John Hobson is known② as “Mr Fix It”to his grandchildren because he is always able to fix anything.“Since July,my grandpa has been whittling(削) walking sticks,and all of them will be sold③ to our community at a low price later,” said Rob Hobson,one of John’s grandchildren.
John lives with his family in Xenia,Ohio and all the money he will be earning through this will be donated④ to a local food bank.“It’s something to keep him active,” Rob said.Last December,John made a personalised walking stick for every member in his family.“Their names were carved⑤ on those walking sticks,”said John with satisfaction.Rob said that 100 walking sticks had been made⑥ by his grandpa and that he would go to a local nonprofit organisation,One Bistro,with his grandpa to give money to all those in need.
