We were stranded 600 miles from home on Chrismas eve - these folks made sure we made it home safely!

My son hit a deer on 90 in NY about midnight on the night before Christmas Eve. I drove up from North Carolina (10 hours) to replace the radiator since no shop was open on Saturday/Christmas Eve. The other gas station nearby was mean spirited and rude, yelling at us and cursing. It was cold, windy, drizzling, and there was snow on the ground - all I wanted was some semblance of shelter to replace the radiator - anywhere really, to provide a wind break. I explained our predicament, asked for a little compassion and place with some tiny bit of shelter to do the work needed on my son;s truck. They were nothing but jerks. Rude, mean, calling names and cursing.

We left and found our way to this Shell station on the other side of the overpass. It was run by an eastern couple - Indian or Pakistani, I guess. I explained our predicament and they happily offered the last bay in their truck/diesel canopy for me to replace the radiator in my son's truck, wished us merry Christmas, and helped make sure we got everything fixed in time to make it safely home to NC for Christmas. They didn't have to help, they could easily have turned us away. But, they saw we were in distress on Christmas Eve and their humanity took over.

We did make it home for Christmas. We left the Shell station at 3PM Christmas Eve, covered in radiator fluid and dirt and wet with snow and muck, and dog-tired with still 10 hours of driving ahead of us. We arrived home in NC about 3AM Christmas day; I hadn't slept in 48 hours. We had a wonderful Christmas day with our full family. We all talked about the Eastern couple - not (outwardly) Christians, not western by heritage - being the heroes of our story. They were open, loving and compassionate to strangers in distress on the eve of a holy day foreign to their culture. Thats what this holiday is all about, right? They were living the meaning of Christmas far better than many Christians I know.

I fuel my truck diesel there some times. Not sure if that is shell product though. Old pumps but fast.

Older Shell station in pretty much the middle of no where. A decent place to stop and fill up, but I wouldn't do much more there.
