payPay it Forward - Hedging in the Heat

How do you help a 87 year old man, who is moving to assisted living and wants to sell his home?  This past week I took from 7 am until noon to help my wife's uncle who has 6 kids (but only 4 live in the area) trim his over grown brushes with one of his daugthers. 

He is moving from a home that has seen 6 kids and a loving wife which he has enjoyed for the last 51 years.  He is not thrilled about moving but due to a fall in which he was on the floor for 12 hours with no help, he and his family have come to a decision that he must move. 

When I asked him, what he thinks need done before he sells his home, he said "I can not sell my home with the bushes looking like that." 

Well I have a hedge trimmer and needed some outside time, so instead of going golfing, I helped him out.

Hope when I get up in years, someone will help me.
