An 80-year-old janitor in Cooke County will soon be able to retire again thanks to help from his community.
He works at Callisburg High School in the small city of Callisburg, which is about 75 miles north of Dallas.
Marti Yusko and Greyson Thurman at Callisburg High School started the GoFundMe for the man known to students as Mr. James. He had to return to work as a janitor after his rent was raised. "Nobody deserves to work their whole life. They deserve to enjoy everything," said student Greyson Thurman, who posted the campaign.
