Sometimes, people come into our lives and we don’t understand how much they mean to us until much later.
For a man named Lee Haase, Angela Nguyen was one of those people.
Angela works at Domino’s and has delivered thousands of pizzas over the years. She has a lot of regular customers and among them is Lee.
Like clockwork, Lee ordered pizza every Saturday, and Angela always delivered it.
But then one Saturday, the orders stopped.
Angela was concerned and went out to his house to find out why.
When Angela arrived, she immediately saw the damage. A powerful storm had ripped off most of the roof from Lee’s house.
After the storm, Lee couldn’t afford to have his house fixed. And making things even worse, his son had been killed in a snowmobile accident around that time, too.
Depressed and broke, Lee moved into a small trailer.
Refused to stand by and do nothing
Angela’s daughter Sarah, who is also a pizza delivery person, noticed found out where Lee was living. She explained to her mother how bad his situation was.
Lee’s trailer didn’t have heat, water, a sewage outlet or electricity.
Angela’s heart went out to Lee. But she didn’t just feel sorry for him — she decided to do something for him.
“I thought we gotta do something. We can’t let a human being live like this,” Angela explains.
