    I'm so glad this story went viral. It aired on local news here a few weeks ago.

    The sad part is that Erling is selling his house for a retirement home and Emmett is moving too. Such a moving story.

    Hopefully Emmett's parents will still take him to visit Earling.

    Wow, that is something else. Nice to know there are still some amazing people out there! Seems like the media will report 100 depressing stories for everyone like this. I wish it was the other way around and maybe the kindness would spread faster?
