On a crisp October morning, 62-year-old Marian Caldwell faced yet another trial. A widow who had rebuilt her life after losing her husband and home, she now ran a small grocery store in an Ohio town. Her store was more than a business—it was a place of hope.
But when she fell \$120 short on rent after helping struggling customers, her stern landlord, Gary Benson, showed no sympathy. Despite her promise to pay in two weeks, Gary demanded she vacate by week’s end. Marian, hurt but unbroken, focused on her store and community.
