Compassion - Vesta May Cowdrey (nee Henize)

So in the pictures that Rachel sent me, I found a lot of this young man (or maybe these two are brothers?):

I asked Grandma Kathleen about the picture on the left, thinking these two were the same person. Grandma replied saying that his name is Danny Lightner. The caption for the picture below, however, is "Vesta, Jackie Lighten, Mary Louise". Grandma told me, "Aunt Vesta and Uncle Herman frequently took in boys who needed help. They would help out with some farm duties, but treated as part of family. This boy was Danny Lightner. He was with Aunt Vesta for - maybe 5 years."

I think it's sweet that we have people in our family like Aunt Vesta and her husband, Aunt Docia, and Robert Jackson Connell who had the generosity and compassion to take in children who needed help.
