Just hours before his high school graduation ceremony, Harvey Shelton was involved in an accident. “I was driving on my way home,” said Harvey. “I was driving behind this white car. Suddenly, they had swerved and drove out of the highway at the last moment. I saw a truck with caution lights on. I tried to get out of the way and couldn’t get out of the way in time.”
Pinned underneath the truck, the front of his car and parts of the driver’s side had been crushed but he was able to stay calm thanks to who he calls his guardian angel. “He said he was scared, couldn’t breathe, holding his hands out the window asking for help,” said Harvey’s step-mom Mauzie Shelton. “And out of nowhere a voice said ‘I got you, and will wait with you till help arrives’ and you held his hand, keeping him calm.” “He grabbed my hand and said ‘I am here. I am going to stay here until the rescue workers get here.’ He just kept saying ‘I am here. I am praying for you. They will be here soon’,” Harvey added.
First rescuers rushed Harvey to the hospital where he received 40 stitches for a large deep cut in his leg. During this time, Mauzie was on a mission to find Harvey’s angel.
“Darrell is a white man, mid-late 40 to early 50s, with red hair, wearing a blue company shirt, name outlined in red,” she wrote in a post. “Our son Harvey and we would like to thank you for your unconditional compassion. You didn’t have to stop, you didn’t have to wait, and you didn’t have to hold his hand so he wouldn’t be alone but you did! And for that we will be forever grateful.”
The family was able to find Darrell and he was in attendance at Harvey’s graduation ceremony.
