Jon Petz

I received the card from John after his performance for Redwood Credit Union’s Day of Inspiration event. The next day at work, during our team huddle we were discussing what we liked best about Day of Inspiration and many agreed Jon’s performance was the best part. A coworker mentioned he was bummed he didn’t grab one of the 7 of hearts cards while he had the chance. Knowing I had received two (7 of hearts) cards from Jon, I left one on my coworker’s desk while he was at lunch, without mentioning who it was from…

I received this card from my management team at work. I am going to give it to my son's 4th grade teacher.

After reading Significance, I will take more time to show my appreciation for the little things in life. Teachers really have a thankless job but my son 4th grade teacher has really impressed me with her attention to the kids in her class and her responsiveness to the parents as well. I want her know that she has made a positive impact on me and I can see a huge difference in my son enthusiasm to learning. She is certainly not JUST a teacher, Mrs. R. is a blessing.

Kindness Matters
A simple moment that I have experienced many times, giving a kid a candy or drink at our events and seeing the smile and reaction for them and their parents. All moments big or small matter, and down the road you may see results. Maybe it will return to you in the same manner or you may not realize it right away.

Putting a smile on someone’s face – Someone thought that I coud make a difference and asked me to become a LION and so I did. And fundraising and community service projects for many years still bring a great feeling to me knowing that the money and the experience of giving back to our communities make others better but also makes you and other Lions better. And it cost nothing on your part other than a smile

Lee

I got to Lee personally last night for the first time.
We’ve been working together for 18 months on an event.
The event was cancelled due to extreme natural circumstances that put many people in danger.
Thanks to first responders as well, as citizens of the great community saved countless people due to their everyday simple yet life-changing actions in some cases.
Lee was that person for me. He made sure to fine and connect with me to inform me of the situation. Due to his actions, I ran. In time.
Before the hotel caught fire.
Thank you Lee. We never know what could have happened, but I know the result of that day is far better than what it could have been.
Thank you for your friendship, your support and partnership to create an amazing experience for your organization.
Today was an emotional event I will never forget.
Thank you!

I work at Redwood Credit Union in Santa Rosa CA. I plan to give me card to a member who makes my day at work. Someone who views me more than just a teller but a person.
