At 96 years old, most people's ideal retirement would not feature standing out in 20-degree weather. However, this is nothing new for Merrell and Dory Fie, who spent Friday afternoon collecting for the Salvation Army for a 67th consecutive time.
However, this is nothing new for Merrell and Dory Fie, who spent Friday afternoon collecting for the Salvation Army for a 67th consecutive time.
This was at the King Soopers on University Hill, where their whole family is involved now — including even their great grandchildren, Cooper and Nora. Just this year alone, the family has raised more than $174,000 for the Salvation Army, through both online and in-person efforts. "This brings back a lot of memories," said Merrell, who turns 95 in a few months."But it also brings back recollections of helping a lot of people."
In the video above, you can hear more from this altruistic couple, and meet the family that plans to keep this tradition going forever.
