Officer Helps Elderly Woman Get to Her Hair Appointment

A Tennessee police officer took an 84-year-old woman to her hair appointment. While on a routine patrol, officer Lance Hoffmeister saw an elderly woman walking down the side of a busy highway. The woman, Elizabeth Hood, told the officer that just had to walk an extra mile to her hair appointment, because the bus only got her so far. Hoffmeister offered to drive her all the way to the salon, but his good deed didn't end there. The officer says he'll pick her up in the future, too.

This kills me because so many older people don’t want to be the trouble and don’t ask for help. My husband and I have helped numerous elderly with cleaning to drs appointments. There’s so much help that’s needed in our communities. ♥️

[@Maria-sg4zy]

Nice story to wake up to this morning. God, bless them both.

[@johnbees4443]

He Protected and Served this Senior citizen. Alot of cops should take this to heart.

[@theresahaines2647]

What a wonderful man! God Bless both of them.

[@timeforthinkers7418]

This is "Southern hospitality" at its best. I salute you, "Officer Lance", for the great kindness you showed to Elizabeth Goode. LOVE in action. God bless both of you. What a fine, outstanding LEO!

[@Porter5habazz]

Yes, God I miss TN for THIS reason. I know there’s good people everywhere. But THIS is common for us in TN.

[@ryleeroseborough7885]

Or we could just build a comprehensive transit system and this wouldn't happen in the first place...

[@albertoortiz1732]

My totally respect for that officer

[@nicholas4954]

Warms my heart everytime I watch this. I miss u Grandma 🙏❤

[@Weeeewriter]

*THIS is what life should be about. The beauty of simplicity and caring. I love it.*

[@marybison3668]

Wow This Is Why I love Police Who helps elder people ❤️❤️

[@artisthusnatalal3099]

You should hate the people who leave their older people to go wherever they want to go without knowing if they'll make it back home safely. This cruel world 😩

[@DeepMeditationMusic1]

Respect to this police officer for showing love and compassion to this elderly lady.

[@sophiawilson3723]

Thank you son. The tears came but I didn't allow them to fall.

[@stevenbeck]

@The quiet kid at the back of the classroom that's not even a good troll, it doesn't make any sense and it's too obvious you're trying to get a reaction, try being more nuanced about it. You'll get there eventually scrub.

Talking about “vanity” - Such a determination to beauty. I definitely have a competition. Utmost respect for this elderly women.

[@mrtommygunwhite]

It might not necessarily be I would suspect she lives on her own and she gets a good chat out of it / human interaction a lot of times people forget about their older relatives

[@keolakhonehere1282]

So damn SWEET ☺️!!!! Way to go Mr. Police officer 👏🏼 And that is a long walk for her and dangerous at that SMH

[@josephc7212]

Good on you Lance outstanding officer.

[@reaper7263]

This officer has the same type of kind heart that 99.99 percent of all police officer do

[@reneeparker1115]

This is a Blessing to see. Thank you for caring about others'. The fact that he is truly concerned with her and went that step further to give her his name and number so she wouldn't have to take a bus and still have a long walk with the walker, that she won't have to do that anymore, is phenomenal. It's also a reminder to me from my childhood and growing up with wonderful memories of 'Aunts and Uncles ' - no blood relation - that were Police Officers and spouses that treated us as family. Plus Mamas oldest brother was a Marshal in L. A. County. Always very proud of Law enforcement.

[@deduke6544]

So kind of that officer, and the lady is do adorable, don't know why I can't stop crying.

[@existentialcrisis918]

It's those onion ninjas again!🙂

[@ssjssgecko5411]

[@cantthink884]

[@edm8591]

A story worth sharing to the world. Outstanding job from the officer himself.
