A Virginia high school senior who spends snow days clearing snow and ice from neighborhood driveways and sidewalks saw something out of his mother's car window that compelled him to tell her to stop the car, CBS Richmond affiliate WTVR-TV reports.

Teresa Adams and her son Tommy were driving home from the DMV when they drove past an older man who was trying to shovel snow from his driveway. The man was using a walker to get around.

"Tommy said 'Mamma stop the car,'" Teresa Adams said. "I got scared and asked, 'What's wrong?'"

He said, "There's an older man with a walker shoveling snow -- I'll help him out," she added.

Tommy approached the man and asked him for the snow shovel.

"He looked surprised," Teresa Adams said. "I was so proud, I started to cry."

The sad part is that something is so rare now it makes the news. That kids parents raised him right.  :II:

A Neighborhood is Speechless After They Wake Up & See What a Group of Teens Did to Their Property

A Colorado neighborhood woke up over the weekend to discover that sidewalks and driveways were completely cleared of snow at 53 properties.

The teenage boys who committed the kindly deed left behind notes that read: You’ve been served!

The young men are all members of the same youth group and got up early to perform their considerate service. They would not accept payment from their neighbors, but did take them up on offers for hot chocolate.
