  my dad lived in Buffalo in the 70s when "The Big One" hit.   he still tears up thinking about the people who froze to death in their cars because some couldnt get out.   He said his neighbor and him were out all night shovelling snow just to get people OUT of their cars in downtown.   Buffalonians are great.
context: Sha’Kyra Aughtry is amazing for all that she did to help this man.  
  According to articles, the man she rescued lives in a group home because he is mentally disabled.  She took took him in and cared for him over the holiday because EMT wasn’t able to respond due to the blizzard.  She appealed for help over Facebook and helped him with essentials such as eating, using the bathroom, etc because his hands are so injured from frostbite.
  I hope her actions get the attention they deserve.  It’s difficult even to care for family/loved ones that need this type of medical assistance and she did so for a stranger during the holidays. >
  
  Buffalo is commonly known as “the city of good neighbors”. This is why. Our city gets battered with insane weather and history has been unkind to our local economics. But no matter what, we bend over backwards to help our neighbors in need. If you ever get stuck in a snow bank somewhere you better hope it’s Buffalo because every neighbor who sees you and owns a shovel will be out to help you in no time.
