SHERMAN, Tex. ― Christmas came early for some Sherman residents while they were on their lunch break Tuesday.

Sources say a man went to Cellarman’s Grill & Bar on Texoma Parkway and began giving out rolls of quarters and new gold coins to diners. They say he even tipped the waitress $600!

We were also told the do-gooder was in Durant buying groceries for needy families.

Some say they are shocked at his kindness, but thrilled that he is thinking of others this season.
