people hold the weight of the world on their shoulders. so many hardships and so much suffering is alleviated with these gifts. i hope someone watching this video has a solution to the daughter's eyesight. she needs to see again. there has to be something that can help.
What an incredible family. I love how her daughter is her biggest fan. You never know what goes on behind closed doors. Thank-you Secret Santa for your life changing blessings.
I'm glad she got a car. Im glad there's a Secret Santa in idaho because I wait for these clips every year. They give me hope, not for a gift, but more givers. Merry Christmas
This is the absolute best secret Santa story that I’ve seen! I’m so glad such a wonderful deserving family received just what they needed. I’ve never seen anyone so appreciative of their Secret Santa gifts. I hope that life continues to get better for them. Merry Christmas to Nate and the rest of the crew, plus secret Santa!
I took care of my dad for years until his death. having a good car was so vital but thankfully we didn't have the issue of needing one. Nice proper gift and money well spent by secret Santa.
Oh my, she was so genuinely happy to receive the car. She has a lot of people depending on her so it is extremely nice that Secret Santa decided to give her this gift. She wanted her Mom, Dad, and Daughter to all be part of it. Such a wonderful soul. Here's a virtual hug for Secret Santa. Your generosity is amazing. 🎅❤ Side Note: Nate and Helpers, I love your new Santa hats. Someone put a lot of work into those and you wear them well. ❤❤❤
You’re right, just watching this one on 03 Jan 2024 and definitely cute Santa hats! Been watching these for several years from Christchurch, New Zealand! Cheers! happy New Year! Admire and respect Nate and his team throughout the year. 🐑🐑🇳🇿🇳🇿NZ
Her daughter rubbing her mothers shoulder and back is the best. You know you're a great mother when your child speaks so well and highly of you. That was too sweet 🥹
Im from Australia and for the past 3 years i have waited all year for east idaho news to start their secret santa video's. Way to bring a tear to a grown mans eye. So awesome. Secret santa is a legend.
For those who have experienced such stress hanging on your shoulders this is truly a miracle. Thank you secret Santa. Mary will sleep well with such a burden lifted.

❤ Thank you Secret Santa 🎅 Once again you've delivered Love, Joy and Kindness to an amazing person. Blessings to you and everyone watching this sweet show ✨️
This is the first time I haven't been crying my heart out. What a joyous woman! I found myself giggling alongside her excitement and I'm so happy for all of them!
You could just see the relief from the burden lifted. Thank you, Secret Santa! And thank you, Nate Eaton and everyone at East Idaho News for bringing us these stories every Christmas season. You've blessed us all.
No matter what hand you are given you stand up and do what you need for your family. They would do the same for you if they are honest folks. So as much as it sounds like Mary has alot on her plate it isnt a burden. Still a gift like this sure helps. Her daugheter seems lovely too.
"No matter what hand you are given you stand up and do what you need for your family. They would do the same for you..." *Would be lovely if this were true - if everyone would live with this philosophy.* *"Do Unto Others As You Would Have Done Unto You."* < It really IS this simple.
That Secret Santa, s/he’s got me on the brink of tears every day. These gracious people receiving gifts aren’t the only one’s benefiting from such generosity, I am as well. As my heart doubles in size with each video. I hope you’re reading this. Thank you, S.Santa. Sincerely, Thank You.❤ Wish I could shake your hand.
@@angiepangie989it's speculated that the santa is stanford smith who owns many car/rv dealerships in idaho falls, Nate did an interview with him and his wife, he is a very nice man.
Hearing her daughter speak about her wonderful mom is so special, Thank you Secret Santa and whomever nominated Mary, this lovely member of the community!
I've just caught up on the last two weeks and now another one has dropped. Merry Christmas from here in Australia! And thank you, Nate, and the rest of the Helpers for coming back year after year. ❤
What I’ve read about the Netherlands is amazing. Don’t you all have baby boxes? For newborns? It seems like a wonderful place to live. I hope I get to visit someday. Right now I’m in the state of Virginia in the United States on the East Coast. Do you also have maternity and or paternity leave?What is an average work week for people there? Thank you if you have time to answer.
What a lovely family! ❤ They seem really kind, the daughter sounds so eloquent I hope she gets to use her talent. Thank you Secret Santa, Nate and team and of course East Idaho News!
Been angry since 6pm last night because I didn't get my paycheck on time AGAIN. Morning after pay day and I STILL don't have my paycheck. Thank you Secret Santa for making that mean less to me. So happy you found this family to help. ❤❤❤
That was a really sweet one! She definitely needed it with all the responsibility she has. Love it! You know when Nate shows up at your door with his santa hat, it's gonna be good!
What a loving family. You can see the kindness and humbleness passing on generations. Also i love how carring the daugther is. Greetings from Austria (with Mozart, not kangaroo)
Secret Santa, how wonderful and giving you are!! This is the TRUE spirit of CHRISTmas!! You truly touched this sweet family. Thank you for blessing so many deserving families.
I watch you from West Virginia and the blessings from the Secret Santa that are gifted from your team to the recipients just bless me each and every day. I watch every year!!!❤
This was amazing! What a mom! And how about her daughter? She raved about her Mom! There are so many unsung heroes in our lives, that never gets recognized. Thank you to Secret Santa in Eastern Idaho who is spotlighting the unsung heroes in their towns!!!
One thing I've noticed with these episodes over the years is how many involve school teachers, teachers' aides, etc. I'm happy to see "Secret Santa" recognizing them and helping them out, but I'm also sad that he has to. We can and should do better for our educators - they are literally shaping the minds of our future generations, yet so many of them are barely scraping by.
I grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area and at one time there was a news channel that only reported the good news. It didn’t last long . As the saying goes no news is good news but not in this case. I love watching your news clips. As for the secret Santa god bless.😊😊😊
Wow, Secret Santa you really do know how to make life better for such a deserving person. Thank you Mary for caring for your family the way you do you are truly inspiring. Here’s to the next 372,000 miles 💗
I love how you all are getting these really amazing people nominated!!! They are so surprised and grateful and not a bit entitled! Thank you all - American watching from Poland.
When i grow up, i'll become a secret santa.
you can do it now.... little things make a HUGE difference

No hyphen is to be used in your "thank you."
You can tell by the daughter what a great job she has done
Thank You to whoever does this. The world needs more good people!

What a Beautiful Story for a Beautiful person.... It's so great to see such an unselfish person who gives so much and then receives it in return....
Her daughter is incredibly knowledgeable and well-spoken. Wish the family nothing but the best. Thank you, Secret Santa❤.
What happened to her daugther's dad?
@@set3777that wasn't part of the story here , she has other kids too ,not just a daughter, who's said anything happened to him?
@@set3777How is that any of our business? Who says he's not involved.
Why wouldn't she be knowledgeable and well spoken? She's legally blind, not cognitively impaired.
Somebody did a great job on Nate's hat. Kudos to whoever is so handy with the crochet hook.
Her daughter rubbing her mothers shoulder and back is the best. You know you're a great mother when your child speaks so well and highly of you. That was too sweet 🥹
My mothers name was Mary and ive found the Marys i met to be special God Bless Mary abd family.
Im from Australia and for the past 3 years i have waited all year for east idaho news to start their secret santa video's. Way to bring a tear to a grown mans eye. So awesome. Secret santa is a legend.
I'm from Perth and I completely agree with you. I binge watch them and the joy that the gifts bring these people is awesome.

For those who have experienced such stress hanging on your shoulders this is truly a miracle. Thank you secret Santa. Mary will sleep well with such a burden lifted.
And the most blessed and beautiful aspect of this and other car gifts, these are high quality cars with years ahead them
As a teacher, who is taking care of his parents, this one is my new favorite Secret Santa. Thanks for doing this for this wonderful lady
"As a teacher(...) favorite Secret Santa."
A teacher ought to know better than to put a comma after "teacher" in that sentence.

These are addictive to watch!
The beautiful part is she want to share the moment with her parents ❤❤❤❤
And her daughter was so happy for her.
Her daughter won’t stop praising how much she appreciates it and how much her mother does for her and is an angel on earth. Bless this family❤️
Aww, I love happy, smiling Mary and am so glad she got a much-needed vehicle!!
Thanks for blessing this lovely lady and her family, Secret Santa!!!
Secret Santa you make thousands cry with Happiness. Thank you for a ray of sunshine in this F'd up World.

Secret Santa you never disappoints 🎅 🤶 Thankyou for helping so many people xxx
It sounds like she's a very deserving woman! THIS is what Christmas is all about. Kudos to those who arranged this. God bless us every one!
i started crying when she said 'that's my car' to her parents.
With all the rich people in this country there should be more a lot more secret Santa's. Thank you to whomever you are. May God bless you.
I've just caught up on the last two weeks and now another one has dropped. Merry Christmas from here in Australia!
And thank you, Nate, and the rest of the Helpers for coming back year after year. ❤
I wach this every year and it is hart warming 😘
I am so thankful I live in The Netherlands, life is so much easier here in Europe
Amen!
Living in Sweden and proud over the health systems we have in Europe.
What I’ve read about the Netherlands is amazing. Don’t you all have baby boxes? For newborns? It seems like a wonderful place to live. I hope I get to visit someday. Right now I’m in the state of Virginia in the United States on the East Coast. Do you also have maternity and or paternity leave?What is an average work week for people there?

What a wonderful family!
That may be the single most deserving person I've ever seen receive a gift from Secret Santa.
What a lovely family! ❤ They seem really kind, the daughter sounds so eloquent I hope she gets to use her talent.
Thank you Secret Santa, Nate and team and of course East Idaho News!
Been angry since 6pm last night because I didn't get my paycheck on time AGAIN. Morning after pay day and I STILL don't have my paycheck.
Thank you Secret Santa for making that mean less to me. So happy you found this family to help. ❤❤❤
I love this family ❤️. Her daughter is amazing and so mature for her age. She loves her mother. Merry Christmas to you all ❤️🙏
I'm convinced whoever gifts all these cars owns a dealership.
Absolutely wonderful human being, whoever they are.
That could be or there is a billionaire from eastern idaho
This is the most wonderful time of the year! Thank you Nate n the crews behind this beautiful project ❤
I’m not rich but if I was, I would LOVE to do this to worthy people. Fabulous ❤
That was a really sweet one! She definitely needed it with all the responsibility she has. Love it! You know when Nate shows up at your door with his santa hat, it's gonna be good!
