This Halloween season, Salena Webb, a mother of four from South Carolina, has shown us that kindness can shine even in the spookiest of times. A devoted Halloween fan, Salena transformed her yard into a graveyard scene filled with ghosts, pumpkins, and skeletons. However, when her neighbor approached her with a heartfelt request, she chose compassion over decor.
Her neighbor explained that his elderly father, recently diagnosed with lung cancer, found the decorations a bit too frightening, particularly the casket. Understanding the emotional weight of the situation, Salena agreed to remove it. She noted, “I didn’t want to be a reminder of what could happen if he doesn’t beat cancer.”
Salena not only took down the casket but also repurposed the skeletons with badminton rackets and moved the scarier elements to her backyard. Reflecting on her decision, she remarked, “Kindness is free, and compassion goes a long way.”
Her TikTok video showcasing this moment resonated with many, with viewers praising her for her empathy. Comments like, “Now this is what being a good neighbor is all about,” highlighted the positive impact of her gesture.

Pat Boone was a huge star in the 1950s and 60s, loved by fans everywhere.
In his long career, he did many things like writing songs, acting, writing books, and speaking to inspire people. He’s even written a book about faith called “If.”
Pat got married to Shirley Lee Foley when he was only 19. Shirley was the daughter of Red Foley, a famous country music singer.
One year after starting his music career, Pat Boone became famous with his hit song “Ain’t That a Shame,” which was originally by Fats Domino. In 1956, he had a song that reached number one on the charts, and only Elvis Presley was more popular at the time.
When he was just 23, he had his own TV show called The Pat Boone Chevy Showroom. It was on ABC and aired every week for 115 episodes until 1960.
“I was the youngest person ever to have my own music show on a big TV network, at 22 years old,” Boone said in an interview with Closer magazine.
Pat Boone’s career kept getting better and better. He became one of the most famous singers in America and also acted in movies like Journey to the Center of the Earth, State Fair, and The Greatest Story Ever Told, among others.
All the while, his wife Shirley was there, supporting him. She took care of their four daughters and also worked as an actress and assistant director.
They were married for 65 years until Shirley passed away at 84. She died because of complications from vasculitis, which is a group of disorders that damage blood vessels.
“Being married to one person for 65 years isn’t common in this wild industry,” Pat Boone shared with The Christian Post. “My wife Shirley passed away last year, and now I’m alone.”
Pat Boone still lives in the house they shared for many years and doesn’t plan to move. But he says he feels the sadness of losing his wife.
“I live here alone with a housekeeper and my dog, a little cocker spaniel named Shadow,” Pat Boone shared with Closer Weekly. “It’s just me and Shadow, feeling a bit lonely. But I’m okay. I miss Shirley.”
After his wife Shirley passed away, Pat told People magazine, “We had a wonderful life together for 65 years. She’s moved on to another place, but we’ll be together again one day.”
