He told them that he had two good legs and arms, and did not need this money. He told them to give the money to people who could not work, to people who needed it.

The woman telling the story was a little girl at that time. She had her father that very day when he went back to his company all those unopened checks. "My father is my hero," she . Lowering her voice, she said she would never forget what he did, and what an and influential mentor(导师) he was on how to live a life.
