Terri Miles+FollowMy Neighbor Fixed Our Oven the Night Before ThanksgivingWe planned to cook our first Thanksgiving turkey at home. But right when we started marinating it, the oven suddenly went dark. My elderly neighbor saw me panicking at the door. Without a word, he grabbed his toolbox and came over. Thirty minutes later, the oven light flicked on again. When the turkey finished roasting, I brought him a big plate. He opened the door smiling, “I knew you’d come back with something.” #Thanksgiving #NeighborlyLove #CommunitySpirit #WarmStories #RealLifeUSA00Share
