8 years ago a grandma accidentally texted young man she didn’t know about Thanksgiving. They’ve gone from strangers to family to business partners

In 2016, Jamal Hinton got a text from an unknown number: “Thanksgiving dinner is at my house on Nov. 24 at 3:00.” Confused, he asked who the texter was.
