In a similar vein, volunteer Georjean Burnwell, 46, told BuzzFeed: "She just kind of walked in with her [security] crew and started putting ice waters in the bucket with us and laying out chips for the people who were needing snacks before and after donating."
She finished by saying: "It's funny, we didn’t even know it was her until after she left and now we're so sad. I mean, to be honest, we thought she was our neighbor."
