An 82-year-old man who felt alone and lost his wife chooses to assist his new neighbours.

Moving to a new place with five kids might be a little scary because everything is new, including the people, places, and way of life.

This is what Sharaine Carabello, 32, and her husband Wilson, 42, went through when they moved from Texas to Pawtucket, Rhode Island. They were especially worried about being accepted because they were the only Black family in the neighborhood and had no idea what the future held.

The Caraballo family was worried about blending in at their new neighborhood until they unexpectedly received assistance from their 82-year-old neighbor, Paul Callahan. Paul, who had recently lost his wife, greeted them warmly. When he brought tools and offered to help fix up their house, they bonded in a special way.

Paul was a manager at Texas Instruments once, and according to USA Today’s Sharaine Carabello, he was like family. They got him through a terrible time by helping him with handyman tasks and inviting him to family gatherings. As their bond grew, Paul assumed the role of honorary grandpa for the Caraballo kids.

Paul did more than just fix broken objects around the house; he became an essential part of the Caraballo family’s daily schedule. He becomes the children’s favorite person, known as “Grandpa,” by making them happy, telling them stories, and spending almost every day with them.

Paul, who likes to socialize and engage with others, thinks that developing relationships is essential. He thinks that if you don’t give it a try, you can miss out on making friends. Paul says it doesn’t have to cost anything to be kind, and you typically get something good in return.

The Caraballo family became close to Paul by choosing to be open and understanding with him, even though they were only neighbors. They learned that families are made up of more members than only their biological relatives. You might feel like you belong and get the support you need by forming close relationships with others.

In this unexpected bond, the Caraballos found a helpful neighbor as well as a loving family member. Conversely, Paul experienced a newfound feeling of fulfillment and purpose, proving that sometimes, individuals come into our lives at the very moment we most need them.

Mitzi Gaynor, iconic entertainer and “South Pacific” star, dead at 93

One of the last surviving stars of classic Hollywood has passed away: Mitzi Gaynor, the vibrant actress, singer and dancer who starred in South Pacific and other golden age musicals, has died at 93.

Gaynor’s managers managers Rene Reyes and Shane Rosamonda confirmed the news to AP, saying that the actress died of natural causes in Los Angeles.

“As we celebrate her legacy, we offer our thanks to her friends and fans and the countless audiences she entertained throughout her long life,” they said in a statement.

“Your love, support and appreciation meant so very much to her and was a sustaining gift in her life.”

Born September 4, 1931 in Chicago, Gaynor began singing and dancing from a young age and signed a contract with Twentieth Century Fox at 17. After making her debut in 1950’s My Blue Heaven, she quickly rose to become a star.

One of classic Hollywood’s biggest “triple threats,” Gaynor’s singing, dancing and acting talents, combined with her energy and charm, made her a big draw in many hit musical films of the era, and she co-starred with some of the biggest movie stars. Her memorable films include There’s No Business Like Show Business, Anything Goes, Bloodhounds of Broadway and Les Girls.

But Gaynor is best known for starring in the 1958 film South Pacific, the big-screen adaptation of the beloved Rodgers and Hammerstein musical.

In the lead role of Nellie Forbush, Gaynor performed classic numbers like “I’m Gonna Wash That Man Right Outa My Hair,” “A Cockeyed Optimist” and “A Wonderful Guy.” She received a Golden Globe nomination for her performance.

Gaynor made her last film appearance in 1963, but she reinvented herself as a live performer, to great success. Throughout the ’60s and ’70s, her act was a major draw in Las Vegas, and she had a series of lavishly produced television specials. She continued performing into her senior years.

Rest in peace to Mitzi Gaynor, one of the last surviving stars of golden age Hollywood who will always be remembered for her unforgettable performances in musicals like South Pacific.
