“THIS IS CENTRAL FLORIDA,” wrote the onlooker. “Pam Brekke’s father is on oxygen. She ran into Lowe’s and we watched her breakdown in tears when she realized she had just missed the last generator. A total stranger, Ramon Santiago, saw her too. He walked up and insisted she take his. This was her reaction. Writing this through tears and with a heart full of pride for my community.”
Completely overwhelmed by the selfless gesture, an emotional Pam embraced Ramon’s face as she choked out six simple words through her tears:
“That’s a beautiful man right there.”
And it seems the Internet couldn’t agree more:
The captivating video has amassed over 12 million views and 142,000 shares since it was shared by the Love What Matters Facebook page yesterday.
“There’s a pure, joyful example of not only the American spirit…but also like the good Samaritan in the Bible…giving himself up to help someone else in need,” writes Facebook user Mark Ray.
“I’m very overwhelmed by that man. God will bless that man,” Pam later remarked in a WFTV news interview.
Praise God for sending beautiful souls like Ramon into the darkest of places to help those in need. In the eye of the storm, He remains in control.
May He richly bless this man and his family for his sacrifice. ❤️
