Mr George Jenkins Gold coin Award.
I received the Mr. George coin after helping a elderly women who fell in the store. I was the first person on the scene, While getting making sure she is okay and getting her information I could tell that she was upset and afraid. I got down on the floor with her and held her hand and comforted her. Her family was very thankful and sent a letter to cooperate.
