In a post seen on the Facebook page of TroTro Diaries, the man's account has been shared, highlighting his quest to continue the customer-client relationship his grandmother had with the physically challenged man.
The Good Samaritan revealed his grandmother was a regular customer of the hawker - Bra Amos - though others came to her for her to buy their products.

Meeting Amos
While on his way from the bank one day, the man recalled seeing Amos sitting quietly under a shed.
''I asked him what's wrong and if he was okay. He said he was okay and was taking a little rest before continuing hawking.
Taking Amos to KFC
''I was hungry at the time, so I asked him if he wouldn't mind having lunch with me? And he said yes. We went to the nearest KFC, which was the Dansoman Asoredanho Mataheko branch ... We enjoyed our meal very well, '' the man recalled.
