What a noble thing to do.

What a good man.
Good move. I also think a letter of thanks to Carlos G. Rojas is in order. Thank you for posting this heartwarming (yet simultaneously heartbreaking) story.
I think those two men might become fast friends.
Mr. Rojas' son fought and died so that this kind of goodness can prevail.
Integrity is doing what is right even if you are not going to be held accountable by someone else. Mr. Carlos G. Rojas will be blessed by displaying this characteristic. I am sorry to hear about Mr. Carlos M Rojas' loss, but I pray that he take solace in having raised such a fine son.
This is really not that big a deal. Eventually the mixup would have been discoverd and he would have had to return the money.
This degree of honesty used to be considered a normal character trait. Now it's unusual enough to be newsworthy. May God bless both gentlemen.
Now there's a genius of a customer service rep.

The "Rojas" genetic code seems to include such personality traits as honesty, courage, and human decency.
I agree that this is a great thing that the younger Mr. Rojas has done. As for the Servicemen's Insurance Group apology letter, I envision something like this:
Dear [ ] Mother [X] Father [ ]Wife [ ] Child
of DECEASED SERVICEMAN.
It is with the utmost sincerity and regret that we present our most personal heartfelt apologies for:
[ ] Improperly refusing your claim
[ ] Sending you a bill instead of a check
[ ] Leaving you on hold for three hours
[x] Other
Very truly yours,
Insurance Bureacrat No. XZ 3Q 27513.
It would be nice if Mr Rojas could receive an avalanche of email saluting him for his integrity. The man is a modern-day hero, and one of the best.
THESE are the kinds of people our society needs to hold up in admiration. Not a bunch of two-dimensional pretty faces like George Clooney or Madonna.
From one human being to another: thank you, Mr. Rojas.
BTW, the caption regarding the younger Mr. Rojas "who mistakenly received" the checks intended for the elder Mr. Rojas is inaccurate. The younger Mr. Rojas did not "mistakenly" do anything. He corrected the mistake of others.
God just put down a gold star next to Mr. Carlos G. Rojas name in the book of life.
bttt!
Nice story for your ping list?
It pleases God to see some righteousness prevail in a land that is known as the home of the brave and "USED" to be known as home to many more like Carlos G. Rojas.
All's well that ends well!
What a good guy.
