    The EastIdahoNews.com team is busy this holiday season helping a local man gift $1 million to deserving people in eastern Idaho. Secret Santa is a real person who wants to remain anonymous and hopes to bless as many individuals in our community as he can.
    Michial helps take care of his mom, who has Muscular Dystrophy, and his grandmother. He has lunch six days a week with his grandma, goes grocery shopping when she asks, takes her to doctor appointments, brings her to his apartment (St. Anthony to Rexburg), does her laundry and runs her around town doing errands.
    Michial works two jobs - one in St. Anthony, the other in Rexburg - to keep a roof over everyone's heads. He has one day off from both jobs.
    He removes snow from neighbors' driveways in the winter, mows lawns for an elderly couple and helps people out when he can.
    Michial's pick-up truck has been his mode of transportation until last year. It needs a new transmission and transfer case. He has babied it until last year when he finally parked it. Since then he has been driving his sister's Toyota Carolla that has over 210,000 miles on it. Getting his mom and grandma in and out of the car is extremely difficult.
    Secret Santa asked us to visit Michial with a special Christmas gift. Watch the video above to see the surprise.

As for Michael, he's a perfect example of kindness not costing anything, just being kind and loving because thats what you choose to put in to the world. Bless him not only for taking care of his family but for also looking in on his elderly neighbor. Thats really commendable. Im so glad Secret Santa was able to gift him something he really needs and no doubt, he will use it to do more good works. Wishing Michael, his family, Nate, the East Idaho news team, Secret Santa, their respective families, and anyone who reads this, a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year full of health and happiness. Wishing blessings for all of you.

    Judge the man by his actions and the way he lives his life, his dedication to family and his love of those around him. THERE is a man. A fitting gift that such an incredible person deserves 100 times over! East Idaho News....you did it again! 10 outa 10 to everyone!

    What an incredibly kind son who deserves all the kindness 10 fold. Thank You secret Santa! If every neighborhood had someone like him, I know all of our problems would be minuscule.
