An employee from Costco was cleaning the aisles when he noticed something on the floor.
He picked up a piece of crumpled paper, not really expecting anything special inside. Then, he noted the juvenile penmanship on the paper and it prompted him to read on.
He wrote down shirts, Minecraft figures, Hot Wheels (but only two), a horror video game called “Five Nights at Freddy’s”, a wallet, and a Gamestop gift card.
The other two things, however, were much more special.
Material items are relatively easy to procure just as long as you have the funds to get them. But the boy’s fourth item said “Bringing peace and joy to the world” and the seventh item was “Just love.” These are gifts so real you can only stand in awe.
Barragan bought everything on the piece of paper.
He got the kid new pairs of shirts. He got him Hot Wheels, but not just 2, but an entire set. He even got him a $15 gift card. Barragan bought the rest of items on the list hoping that he could make the boy be excited for the holidays.
He took to social media to find the boy.
They put Barragan in touch with a boy named Julian Huey. The unsuspecting Julian lost his list, inadvertently getting everything because of what happened.
With the help of strangers, Barragan was able to deliver all the toys on the list.
Julian’s family was very grateful for the kind gesture. Michele Huey, his mom, explained that for a large family like theirs, times had been tough since they rely on military pension.
