REPORT: VILLAS MAN IDENTIFIED AS MAN WHO BEFRIENDED GIRL WITH AUTISM

A heartwarming story about a man from the Villas who treated a very special girl well on a recent flight.  The Star Ledger identified the man as Eric Kunkel from the Villas.  Kunkel had a friendly conversation with a three year old autistic girl on a recent flight.  That act of kindness prompted the girl’s mother, Shanell Mouland, to write a letter called “Dear Daddy in Seat 16C” that has gone viral on the internet.  Kunkel says he travels a lot and told Yahoo that the little girl was by the far the most well behaved child he’s sat next to.
