"Doctor" from Heaven at the Temple-Thankyou!

I would like to thank the "Doctor" who took the time at the temple one morning, to comfort me in my time of extreme emotion. I was sobbing at the temple at a photo of my dog. I was dressed in a tacky cowgirl outfit, just right for BM. You stopped and spoke to me about my dog and my marriage and were a great comfort.
You appeared from nowhere and took my hands and helped me with your kind words, soothing voice and understanding.
I did not get your name (you said you were a Doctor) and I did not ask where you were from.
I think you were from Heaven. Thanks for taking the time to help me through an emotionally difficult morning. You were at the temple when I needed you. I can never thankyou enough.

I'm not the Doc, but if you really want to thank him,... do the same for someone else if the situation permits. ^_^

Thankyou. I believe that is excellent advice. I will return the favor when the opportunity presents itself.
I realize I will never know who this person was, but his taking the time to comfort me was an exceptionally kind thing of a stranger to offer.

Hi Alitomcat.
What did the doctor look like? I was hanging out with one.

Hey I met a doctor there too, on Saturday morning. Dr. Rupert. He just came off a big First Aid shift. He was probably in his early 50's (?? I'm not very good with that), a bit heavy set, not wearing much, and crying and smiling at the same time. He was a very touching person and I too was very happy to have met him.
