Independently Owned, Locally Grown, Community Loved
What could have been a stressful roadside ordeal became a heartwarming reminder of the kindness found in the Burdekin community for father Clinton Condren Snr and his son last week.
Travelling south between Ayr and Townsville, the pair experienced car trouble just past Giru before fellow motorist Carol Philo noticed they were stranded and stopped to see if they needed help.
Mr Condren said Ms Philo's kindness made all the difference, with a tow truck arriving soon after to get them back on the road within the hour.
Grateful for the support, Mr Condren wanted to publicly thank Ms Philo for taking the time to stop and lend a hand, saying her simple act of kindness turned a worrying situation into one with a happy ending.
