✨ Small Acts, Big Hearts ✨

Today is Random Acts of Kindness Day, and here at Hunt-Stellato Funeral Home, we witness the incredible power of a kind gesture every single day.

In the toughest moments, it’s often the smallest things that shine the brightest: a neighbor bringing over a warm meal, a friend sending a "thinking of you" text, or a stranger holding the door with a sympathetic smile.

Kindness doesn’t have to be a grand gesture to be meaningful. Today, we’re challenging our community to spread a little extra light. 🕯️

Looking for ideas? Try one of these:

☕ Pay for the coffee of the person behind you in line.
💌 Write a handwritten note to someone who has made a difference in your life.
🌿 Leave a bouquet of flowers on a neighbor's porch.
📞 Call someone you haven’t spoken to in a while just to say hello.
💬 Leave a positive review for a local business you love.

Let’s turn "random" acts into intentional ones. You never know whose day—or life—you might change just by being you. 🤍

Tell us in the comments: What’s one act of kindness that has stayed with you? 👇

Every President’s Day, we are reminded that history isn’t just found in textbooks—it’s built through the lives, service, and stories of those who came before us.

Just as our nation’s leaders left behind legacies that still guide us today, we believe every person in our community leaves a unique "history" of their own. Today, we honor the courage, the vision, and the enduring spirit of all who have served and led.

We are proud to be part of a community that values its roots while growing toward the future.

Tell us: If you could have a conversation with any figure from history, who would it be? Let’s talk about it in the comments! 👇
