Secret Santa Update: The 77-year-old working a paper route who thought she was being scammed 

This lady is quite adorable, protect her at all cost.

Time for Secret Santa to give Nate and his family a nice surprise.

I had never heard of Nate Eaton until Lori Vallow's story. Now I can't get enough. What an amazing person he is.

I am in tears. I remember being very low on money near xmas & worrying . My local church dropped off a hamper with expensive foods. The relief & happiness I felt was overwhelming. I always give food to foodbanks every year now. ❤

God bless this lady. How beautiful to honor the LORD'S holy day. God bless the secret Santa

So glad you followed up on this one, Nate. You are such a straightforward and honest man and Diane has been a great sport about her reaction. So great to learn that she used the money to improve her life. The fact that she keeps calling it a miracle makes me happy. And Secret Santa must be proud that he had the ability to make such a difference in peoples' lives. Blessings to all who watch this video.

The Secret Santa and Nate Eaton are doing a huge mitzva (good deed). East Idaho News is really part of their community. From Jerusalem.

“You brought a miracle to my door....”. Perfect words from her. She ROCKS!!

If ever there was “before and after” proof of the huge difference that a meaningful act of kindness can trigger in someone’s life, this is it. “Skeptical Diane” is now “Joyful Diane” paying it forward! So great!!

Bless the heart of the secret Santa whoever He/She is! Changing lives for the better, showing mercy and love to your fellow man, we need more of this! I ❤️ how she’s paying it forward! We all can’t give a lot but we all can give something. I love human kindness!

Thats a woman i would gladly have as an collegue any day :) (I'm running paper routes too in my country). She seems such an nice person.

It is heartwarming to see how much this woman’s confidence has blossomed in a year! 🥰

What a sweet lady! She is so grateful! She never expected a handout but worked to pay her bills. May God bless her! She is an inspiration to all of us!

Im so happy we are already getting in the mood for xmas with Nate :D

Paying it forward is such a wonderful feeling. God bless Secret Santa. From South Africa 💞

Oh I remember her! Good for her! Nate, I love your programming. Please don't change! You're such a warm wonderful individual.

So cool! Coincidentally enough, I watched her clip earlier tonight

Diane you are a wonderful woman...paying it forward, bless you!

So happy that I was able to see this clip; always wondered how some of the recipients are doing. Thrilled she is doing well, is out of debt and enjoying life like everyone should be.

She is just darling!! So happy for her happiness!!

This was beautiful!! It brought a tear to my eye...I'm SO HAPPY that she was picked to receive the gift, because I could tell that it REALLY helped her, & it went towards making her life easier! I love seeing God's work through PEOPLE! It restores our FAITH...not only in GOD, but in US! I just can't get over how good this made me feel. If I had Oprah's money, I'd give money every day to people who NEED it, DESERVE it, & will APPRECIATE it, just like this sweet lady!!!🤗🙏🙌💕❤💕💙💕💛💕💚💕💜👼🏼😇

As happy as this video made me, it also brings to light the SAD reality of scammers preying on the elderly & others. Elderly folks have to be so careful about spotting scams, that it's no wonder that she thought she was being scammed! She was like, "NOPE! This can't be real..." lol. Just precious! 🤣😂🤗😅😇

This is an incredible story. All she needed was the one hand up, and now life is right side up. What a blessing the Secret Santa was in her life.

How wonderful I am so happy for her. God Bless the Secret Santa.

What a beautiful lady. It’s awesome how she is trying to pay it forward. Secret Santa has changed so many lives.

I’m a PCA and I work with seniors and they my fav people on the world if they only knew how valuable and literally life changing they have been to me. Half of them are usually alone cause fam has moved on and I literally make them a part of my fam. We dnt appreciate them like we should I love when they tell me their whole lives and always before I leave their home I leave them a note saying how much I enjoyed their company.

Awww. She is a sweet lady. I cannot wait until the new season begins!! 🎄🍁💜

I love that Secret Santa is anonymous. A true giver!

This shows America at it's best!👍

December 18 is my birthday, and what a birthday gift Diane's video was. I am glad she is paying it forward to others who are in need, just as Secret Santa has done. Also, keep being skeptical! A lot of crooked people out there, but also good people. Trust your instincts.

Watching here from Greece now! :) I am so happy for her.

This woman's story was one of my favorites. She was very appreciative and deserving, in my opinion. Love these stories.

I love these Secret Santa vids and pray you still visit the recipients personally this year.

I just love this lady and her reaction to the Secret Santa gift. It shows she was being cautious. So very happy she was able to pay off debts and still get some awesome things to make her life better. Her update just makes me want to cry. Bless her, bless Secret Santa for all the wonderful things he is doing for others and Bless Nate and East Idaho News for being the bearer of these gifts to help those in need. We need more Secret Santa's to help others.

I love these updates. She is soooo happy. God bless her and keep her.

From New Zealand I want to say what wonderful lady you are. 77 years young, bless you lovely lady. And yes you are world famous now, even down here in New Zealand. Many blessings

Awww I'm a 32 male. Not that it matters. But I'm so grateful my mom gave me a strong but soft caring heart. This made my eyes water and heart melt. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Wow!! What a worthy recipient! Shes the kind who helps others, doesn't take help...what a perfect choice for Secret Santa!

New video to me. How fabulous that she’s free of debt! Thank you Secret Santa! Thank you also to the other companies that gave!

I just love her countenance and her love for life. So glad to see all the smiles and thankfulness.

Secret Santa Hope you enjoy the cup of coffee we sent your way...wished I had a 1/2 million to give away...must be the best JOB on the planet!! So many blessed people....not only the ones that were blessed to receive the Gifts but all of us that just got to watch! Thank you and cheers!!

Complete turnaround for this lucky lady. So happy to see her life as it should be. Secret Santa is a wonderful human being.

She is SO adorable! It must be a huge relief, that she could pay off all her bills. I hope she has many more wonderful Christmases for years to come! I spent two days binging on all of the Secret Santa videos. It's so uplifting!

Awesome follow-up story Nate. So cool that her tires and couch were also a gift. God really blessed her that day, with a little help from Secret Santa. Great job E.I.N. Love the videos!!!

Diane reminds me of a dear friend of my family. So grateful and and able to show it honestly with a full heart. God bless the businesses that donated their wares to her…. The world is full of people that CAN give… so it really awesome to watch it happen when they actually do. We can all give in our own ways.

This Is Precious !!! Thankyou Nate !!! She is so darn cute !!! I love that she said, I'm Not working on Sundays ~... XxOoOO

She is PRECIOUS. I adore her attitude and her outlook and her independence. Wonderful choice for secret santa! She's just so grateful!

Couldn't have found a better person to give to. She's awesome.

Love this lady.💜😊

I binge watch these on a regular basis. Thanks for not being a pompous tool, Nate.

Much respect to Nate, he never makes it about himself and he seems to truly enjoy seeing the recipient receive their gift. Also much respect to the secret santa... so nice to see someone do something without promoting themselves.

I loved the original video, the release of her appreciation after she realizes it's not a prank is so heartwarming I wished I could hug her also! That is my favorite one of the Secret Santa videos.

A beautiful story, such a beautiful lady.

Glad this woman was able to make her life for the better because of this cuz she is sooooo cute and sweet!! The original video always makes me so heartfelt and teary-eyed. Can't wait for Nate and the Secret Santa season again this year!!!!

Nate has the personality and the Charisma to do this job. Greetings from Canada.

Good loves a cheerful giver like secret Santa. I love this grateful receiver. She has a wonderful attitude. What a beautiful story.

I remember seeing this last year 💞 Such a lovely woman of greatness and quality. Couldn't be so happier for souls to be forever changed, linking echo's of infinite change beyond, from that person to the next. And this special secret Saint Nick surely is Heaven bound and sent! 🎯 Indeed, may the Lord always bless her, Nate, Saint Nick, friends n families...and you! 🙏 💒

awe that’s amazing that she doesn’t have to work anymore.

Im so glad they followed up... she was so skeptical

Wow I'm so happy to see this lady doing so great. She looks so confident and happy.

What a sweet Lady and the world is a better place ,because of great people like the Secret Santa in Idaho

So happy for her and proud that she's aware that there are scammers out there preying on senior citizens! Wish I could start something like this, one day I hope!

I’m in Los Angeles and in about 1996 I won $2,000 on a radio station that someone I work for said they had heard my name announced on and I called in just in time to claim the prize! It was close to Christmas time and the money helped myself and my family toward a very merry Christmas!

This makes me so happy I have fresh tears of joy.

Nice, she is so grateful !!!!!

This story touched my heart

I’m SO grateful for this beautiful, heartwarming update! Nate you are amazing! Your kind heart comes through in all these videos from Secret Santa to your empathetic coverage of the Chad and Lori Daybell case! You’re a gem! And so is this sweet woman! I’m so glad she’s not in that situation anymore!

Super Great Secret Santa! ❤️🌲❤️🌲❤️🌲❤️

Smart lady. As a senior person, I'm always on the alert for scams and tricky people.

Nate has the greatest job in the world. Who wouldn't want to bring joy and happiness to people as a job?

Oh my gosh this gets me so excited for the holiday season haha

I loved her reaction and God puts blessings on the deserved that never ask for anything. God bless and stay safe 🙏❤

This woman is so grateful and it feels extra nice to have presents to people that are like that,she really needed this things,and she showed gratitude and it makes it worth doing 10.000 more....Im not surprised that her clip got all the views that it got world wide...she is a very nice lady..

How special. This is what Christmas is all about:)

You guys are both so lovely I dont know who is better to watch 🥰🥰😋😋😋

Thanks for the wonderful update. So happy that this meant so much and allowed this lady to not have to work.

love her!

Love this lady. Reminds me of my own mom when she was alive❤️

I'll never forget this one. She was so sweet and looked so worried. I'm glad she made the most of it all

That was an impressive interaction for Nate there. Perfect patience.

I love this! Last Christmas I was going through a really hard time. Divorce, all of my family live out of state, money was tight, and I was not feeling well. I spent many days in bed, watching these Christmas videos from Nate and East Idaho News and they were so uplifting and inspiring. It made Christmas feel so special, just to watch and see and the beautiful, positive things being done with the help of secret Santa. God bless you, Nate. You touch hearts everywhere, and you are so appreciated. I’m so happy you did a follow up on this story. I will never forget watching this story last year. It really touched me. I watched it several times, actually, and I never forgot this wonderful woman and her story. To see the update is so beautiful. Great work you’re all doing there on Idaho, and you are reaching hearts everywhere with your acts of kindness. Secret Santa’s gifts have a ripple effect even for non-recipients. It’s beautiful. We need these kinds of videos in our world right now. I’m here for it. Thank you!! Love you all! From California. ❤️🙏🏻

Who the heck votes DOWN a video like this? This woman is a totally different person from a year ago... such an amazing and uplifting story! Glad she answered the door!

These videos make me feel good and really help when I am slipping into sadness over all the horrible things that are and have been happening.

Amen god bless her

Good luck to this beautiful lady ❤️

Awe, she’s terrific!! ❤️ Secret Santa is such a blessing. Thank you Nate for being so great.

Adorable lady

Aww she is so deserving bless her heart x

Bless her! I would think it's a scam if someone came to my door to give me money!!

So glad you did the update videos, I wonder what happens to these people. How great that others helped as well and that she pays it forward.

Your a nice lady Diane Pratte!! Nate I hope Santa is good to you this year!! USA!!😊

I just love her

You are so sweet!!good for you!!
