Silus’s grandfather wanted to build him a custom walker since store bought walkers were too small for the two-year-old. He went to the local Home Depot in Richland Hills to grab the necessary tools when three random strangers decided to lend a helping hand.
In the beginning, assistant manager Matthew Spencer approached Silus’ grandfather just kind of asking him what he was working on. The grandfather then told Spencer about Silus’s walker and the boy’s disease when it moved him.
The assistant manager then called his tool technician, Chris Wright and tool rental supervisor, Eric Bindel to help craft a walker for the family.

The Home Depot employees were touched by little Silus. After two days and working on their day off, the Home Depot dads finished building the custom walker.

The crew delivered the walker to little Silus last week where the mother was clearly touched. She said, “We need to recognize these gentlemen who put their heart and hard work into making this for my son.”

What also to note about the custom walker is that Wright designed it so that as the child grew, the pipes on the side can be lifted so that it can match Silus’s height. This man really put some thought into this project.

What a touching act by some fine gentlemen. They didn’t even know the family but upon hearing the circumstances, they went beyond what was required of them as workers. Very heartwarming, very touching. The world needs more people like you guys.
