Grocery bagger's positive spirit lifts community

by Heather Whitley from USA Today and News 10 ABC:
Kevin Hawkins has been bagging groceries for the past 20 years. His boss says he has hardly missed a day of work and is always in a good mood. His personality is so infectious, customers often wait in line just so they can have Hawkins as their bagger.
Hawkins has Down syndrome and credits his dad for teaching him how to be a good employee.
"[My dad] told me to listen to everybody, I mean everybody. He taught me the right things," he says.
Hawkins' dad passed away about ten years ago. But ever since that day, he has worked hard to live a life his father would be proud of.
