They’re not just “Crossing Guards” they are Guards! I’ve witnessed this man cross children at this intersection for years everyday; good weather or bad. He is genuinely the kindest man ever.
Today a vehicle was not paying attention as he was directing the traffic to stop and it kept driving towards the kids crossing the crosswalk. He ran and jumped in the way to force the vehicle to stop. Today I witnessed him try and lay his life down to protect those children. Today I witnessed a Hero and it was beautiful.
