Feel Good News

Our LERN hero did it again.
First, he quit his job to protect his wife, a LERN staff member, from being exposed to COVID. His workplace was exposing him to the virus, and the business did not show any signs of protecting the workers.
Now, even while only partially employed, he still dug deep and rented a whole movie theater so his step-son, who is on the autism spectrum, could view one of his favorite movies.
Thank you Les Aiken for being an inspiration in these tough times for all of us.
Photo: Christian, age 16, even got popcorn when Les rented the movie theater for him.
