For more than ten years, customers at the pharmacy in the small town of Geraldine, Alabama, did not know who their benefactor was. Farmer Hody Childress only confided in his daughter shortly before his death at New Year’s Eve. Since 2012, the man who recently suffered from COPD has given the pharmacy owner, Brooke Walker, a $100 bill every month. She was to manage the money and use it for those who could not afford their medicine. “Don’t tell anyone the money is coming from me,” Childress reportedly whispered to her during the first transfer, Walker said in an interview with the Washington Post. When asked, she was supposed to reply that it was “a blessing from God”.
