"What a beautiful job!" shouts beautician Earline Gallashaw, standing on the sidewalk, her mouth agape.
Then she makes her plea. "I need help."
When Gallashaw moved into her house a few blocks away, her "huge" yard was a mess of weeds, brushes, and fallen trees. After paying to have it cleared, it's now a barren wasteland. She dreams of grass and flowers, but "my husband can't do it by himself. He thinks he can, but he's too old."
Laughing, Daniels hands her a card.
Walking away, Gallashaw is sold.
"Oh, Lord, it needs help," she says, shaking her head, stepping back into the salon.
