		</div><p>Members of a Louisiana State University fraternity have chipped in more than 50,000 US dollars to pay off the mortgage of a woman who fed them when they were students.</p>
<p>About a dozen members of Phi Gamma Delta surprised Jessie Hamilton with the money for her 74th birthday on April 3 in Baker, Louisiana, The Advocate reported.</p>
<p>Roughly 90 fraternity members raised 51,765 dollars (£37,600), with each brother donating between 600 dollars (£435) and 1,000 dollars (£725) on average, the newspaper said.</p>
<p>“That shows how they all felt about her,” said Andrew Fusaiotti, who was a member of the fraternity in the late 1980s.</p>
<p>“Jessie is one of these people that shows up to work and always has a smile on her face, eager to please and never complains.”</p>

<p>Ms Hamilton worked for 14 years as a cook for the fraternity, but Mr Fusaiotti also recalled her helping students with rides to the grocery store and doctor when he was on campus.</p>
<p>Another member, Will Rainey, said the fraternity brothers formed a special bond with Ms Hamilton.</p>
<p>At the start of the pandemic, Mr Fusaiotti called to check on her.</p>
<p>She was still working two jobs to pay a 30-year mortgage for the home she bought at the age of 60.</p>
<p>Her plan was to continue working until the home was paid off.</p>
<p>Now, she has plans to retire and visit Hawaii.</p>
<p>“This has been a blessing to me,” Ms Hamilton said.</p>
<p>“I have been worrying about how I was going to pay my house off. I am grateful for what God has done and has led them to do for me.”</p>
