message for whoever

On arriving home today i was met by an elderly gentleman who had mistaken my boat for one he had encountered on tuesday.

here is his story

whilst boarding his boat from a pontoon the boat moves and caused him to fall into the water, being fully clothed and having swallowed lots of water he was really struggling to stay afloat, his friend jumped into the water to try to assist but also struggled to cope.
just in the nick of time a small boat came alongside and the guy (unknown) rescued the two gents from what was a life threatening situation.
a trip to the hospital was required to fix up the gentlemen.

I have been asked to post up a very simple message to the rescuer.

Thank you....
whoever you are you almost certainly saved lives by your actions and are to be congratulated for your heroic actions.

please guys if you know this person would you pass on the message as the gentleman was unable to get his details

cheers

dave
