As he unlocked his truck door, he noticed something odd—an old man was sitting on one of the empty parking spots, wearing nothing but a tattered hat and holding a thermos. The delivery driver smiled, thinking maybe it was just another Kendall eccentricity. He parked next to the old man and asked if he needed help. With a twinkle in his eye, the old fellow replied, ‘Just keeping warm until my ride arrives.’ Turned out he was waiting for a UPS package that never came—and had been there for three hours. The driver laughed, gave him a blanket from his truck, and they both shared a hearty laugh over coffee from the thermos.
