Once a thriving coal community, it&#8217;s been peeling &#8211; and therefore somewhat unappealing &#8211; for years. Cotter says he&#8217;s always wished someone would fix it up, and so after his wife died, he decided to be that someone.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;\">&#8220;I can do something about the town. We&#8217;ll paint it,&#8221; he explained.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;\">&#8220;The whole town,&#8221; he added.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;\">He started with a fire hydrant, moved down the road to the guardrail and then hit a home stretch.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;\">Cotter painted house after house, business after business &#8211; all for free.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;\">Bonny Shifflet owns the newly painted Bonnie&#8217;s Restaurant. She says she cried when she saw her business. &#8220;I tell you, it did something to me,&#8221; she said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;\">&#8220;It&#8217;s just amazing what a little bit of paint will do,&#8221; Cotter said. &#8220;It changes people&#8217;s hearts.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;\">It also inspires them to join in. Over the last few months, volunteers have been coming out of the woodwork to paint the woodwork and help Cotter reach his goal. &#8220;It&#8217;s just gone like topsy,&#8221; Cotter said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;\">Today, you can&#8217;t walk more than a couple blocks in Glouster without finding someone painting something. Even the high school kids have been Tom Sawyer-ed into helping.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;\">Not a painter? Not a problem. Jim has found a way for pretty much everyone one to contribute. And again, these are all volunteers donating their own time and often their own materials to work on buildings that aren&#8217;t even their own. &#8220;We&#8217;re getting something out of it because it makes us feel better about our town,&#8221; one volunteer said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;\">&#8220;It&#8217;s just what a community ought to do,&#8221; Cotter said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;\">So far Jim and his volunteers have painted or fixed up more than 20 buildings. Although they may never get to all the ones that need it, their effort alone has already made this community a brighter place to live &#8212; and given this widower all he ever needed &#8212; a fresh coat of purpose.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;\"><em>If you&#8217;d like to donate to the folks in Glouster, checks can be made out to &#8216;Glouster Volunteers&#8217; and sent to this address:<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;\">Glouster Volunteers<br \/>c\/o Jody Moore<br \/>134 Allen Road<br \/>Glouster, OH 45732<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><span class=\"dateStamp\" style=\"margin: 0px 0px 20px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-size: 11px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, san-serif; text-align: left; vertical-align: baseline; color: #717171; float: none; display: block; background-color: #fefefe;\">\u00a9 2012 CBS Interactive Inc..
