>What would you do if you were driving down a busy two lane highway and
saw
a single woman with moving boxes scattered over the
roadway?
If you were Adam Maher you would not think twice about
stopping
immediately and risking life and limb to retrieve said boxes
from the
middle of the road! Mr. Maher is a friend and client
of IPG who joined us
for a recent river trip in Moab. On the
way back to Salt Lake City we
came upon a women who was moving
across country by herself. She had what
appeared to be a
travelling swap meet precariously tied down to the top of
her
aging Ford Explorer. When we arrived, half of the contents of
her
boxes (including Grandma's glassware, knick knacks, etc.)
had been
pulverized into the ground by several passing
motorists. But this did not
stop Adam from being of service.
He collected what he could, boxed it
back up and started the
process of re-securing her load.
It was inspiring and at the
same time tense to watch as semi-tractors
would fly by at
freeway speeds just feet from where our cars were parked
on the
narrow shoulder. What was most impressive was the true act
of
kindness and selflessness demonstrated by Adam. We hope to
be a little
bit more like him in the way we treat everybody,
from our friends, our
clients, our families, and yes even people
we have never met, nor may see
again.
Thanks Adam for showing us what True Service looks like!
