Harley-Davidson Rejects Military Wife’s Late Check, Sends Touching Letter Instead.

.

A few years ago, a humble Harley Davidson dealership owner named Dennis Packee went viral for a letter he wrote to a soldier’s wife. The soldier, named Christopher Walters, left his motorcycle in some rented space at Reiman’s Harley-Davidson before being deployed overseas. Christopher’s wife, Jaime, was in charge of payments for the storage space while he was gone, but she had fallen behind.

It turns out, during the Vietnam War Dennis was nearly drafted, but was discharged due to a medical problem. Since then, he’s been extra aware of the sacrifices made by our armed forces, and he’s always been looking for ways to give back.

That’s why accepting Jaime’s money was not only a problem for Dennis personally, but it was against a policy Dennis has upheld throughout his then-18-years of ownership.

Dennis wrote back to Jaime, returning her money and explaining his dealership’s policy, then he went about his business thinking nothing of it.
