A mom who flew from Kansas City to Charlotte this month with her two kids ended up sitting next to the nicest guy ever...

A woman named Jessica Rudeen was flying from Kansas City to Charlotte earlier this month with her three-year-old daughter AND four-month-old son.  So basically the LAST person you'd want to sit next to on a flight.

Her daughter Caroline had a MELTDOWN after they boarded.  And the baby was screaming too.  But luckily, they ended up sitting next to the nicest guy EVER . . . a guy from Kansas named Todd Walker who looks like he's in his mid-50s.

He offered to hold the baby while Jessica dealt with Caroline.  Then she needed to feed the baby.  So he switched gears and started talking to Caroline to keep her distracted.

But here's the amazing part.  He kept it up the ENTIRE FLIGHT . . . watched a movie with her . . . helped her color . . . and let her lean over him while he showed her stuff out the window.  So by the end of the flight, they were best buds.

At some point, Todd and Jessica realized they also had the same connecting flight from Charlotte to Wilmington.  So when they landed, they walked to the gate together.

Then before they boarded, he talked to someone at the desk . . . and asked them to change his seat so he could sit next to them AGAIN for the last leg of their trip.

Jessica says he told her he has two kids of his own, and someone helped his wife when she had to fly a while back.  So he was just trying to pay it forward.

Hey It’s Ryan, let me start off by saying…YES, I was born and raised in Wixom, Michigan although a lot of listeners like to joke that I am from Arizona. WCSX has always been my radio home, I have been at the station since I was a 23-year-old intern, co-host of Big Jim’s House, married with kids. Family and radio are what I love, but don’t get me started on golf! Like some, I have become obsessed with golf and you can hear all about that on “The Ball Washer Pod” right here on WCSX. One of my other passions is helping out the Vets. Since coming to WCSX I have been apart of raising hundreds of thousands for local vet groups. Other than that, I am a goofy guy, loving life, my family and talking to you on the radio. Ryan writes about golf, family and what happens on “Big Jim’s House.”
