Paying it forward

Chesterfield, Pa., utilities worker Calvin Godette has been gifting strangers – buying them coffee, groceries or gas – without thinking about much in return.

His generosity inspired the recently-widowed Denise Walters to further acts of kindness. Correspondent Steve Hartman reports.
