Dennis Packee, the owner of Reiman’s Harley-Davidson dealership, gained attention for a generous act toward the wife of a deployed soldier, Christopher Walters.

When Jaime Walters fell behind on motorcycle payments during her husband’s deployment, Dennis refused her payment and returned it with a heartfelt note.

Driven by his deep appreciation for military sacrifices, Dennis, a Vietnam War draft-dodger due to health reasons, has a longstanding commitment to giving back. His act of kindness, rooted in this gratitude, unexpectedly garnered nationwide attention after a photo of his letter circulated online. Despite his lack of social media presence, Dennis was overwhelmed by the outpouring of support.

Moved by the response, Dennis believes in the power of small acts of kindness to inspire others. His gesture received further recognition when Representative Cheri Bustos and the Walters family visited the dealership to honor him with a Congressional Record Statement, acknowledging his compassion and generosity.
