An American hero turned a single act of kindness from a stranger into a mission to help others. A Navy veteran is using money from a fundraiser to provide mobility scooters to dozens of other veterans in need.
Kenneth Jary, 80, would honor those who served with a daily trip on his scooter to a veteran's park in Mahtomedi, Minnesota. That is, until his mobility scooter broke.
"That was my life," Jary told CBS News of his visits to the park. "I was very sad, depressed."
However, his sadness changed after meeting with Amanda Kline in a coffee shop through a mutual friend.
