Police Officer Comforts Theft Victim With Piano Skills
There are a lot of incredible police officers who truly go above and beyond the call of duty. And recently one, police officer took the idea of serving to another level. A while back, Mansfield police in the United Kingdom got a call about a robbery at the home of a 93-year-old man.
After taking care of the paper work and making sure he was okay the officers wanted to go back to check on the kind man. When the officers returned, they sat with the gentleman and learned so many details about his life. They learned all about his time as a pilot in World War Two, and heard all about his beautiful wife who he sadly lost a few years ago. While they were sitting with this incredible man, one of the officers noticed that there was a piano in the living room.
This particular officer was a passionate piano player and couldn’t help but take some time to tickle the ivories. He sat and started to play and thankfully one of his brothers in blue pulled out his phone and started to record this amazing moment.
This officer’s talent is incredible, but it is when you can see the hands of this gentleman conducting along that you have to stop and truly take notice of the power of this moment. Taking the time to share some music and a chat with this man wasn’t required of these men but what a difference it made!
Playing the pianoFollowing a theft revisit today for a ninety three year old gentleman, it truly made me feel good about myself and the job I do. He felt wanted and reassured. He was really pleased that we had checked in on him to see that he was ok. He shared stories about him 'getting his wings', being a pilot, the war and sadly the loss of his beloved wife on Christmas Eve a few years ago. I noticed he had a piano with music open - one of his favourite Chopin pieces he said, a nocturne. I told him it was my late grandma's favourite too! I said I could play, so he invited me to play for him, which I did. It made his day, as you can see in the video you can see how much he appreciated it. Job satisfaction.
