This 18-year-old Drove 3.5 Hours At Night To Deliver A Pizza For A Terminally Ill Man And It’s Heartwarming
The world is full of wonderfully kind people and sometimes we get to see that in the toughest of times. One woman named Julie Morgan left a heartwarming review of a pizza place in Battle Creek, MI, called Steve’s Pizza. Julie and her husband have been eating there for 25 years. Sadly, Julie’s spouse was diagnosed with cancer and is now at home under hospice care. One family member decided to call up Steve’s Pizza, explain the family’s situation and asked them if they could send a friendly text or card, as the pizza place meant a lot to the couple.
Steve’s Pizza manager, 18-year-old Dalton Shaffer, decided to go one step further, explaining he “just wanted to make them [the couple] happy.” Scroll down below to read the full story from Julie. Warning, it may make you cry!

This right here is why as awful as humanity is, we shouldn't give up on it. There are beautiful kernels of compassion, kindness and good still out there. Hod bless this young man and that family. Can we talk about his great work ethic, also. He was obviously raised right and will be going places. God bless whoever brought up this amazing young man

WTF this guy has no life, legit, get a girl friend... he won't even benefit from the petrol lost during the trip... There is a reason that pizza companies have a max delivery area... one to control their losses on petrol and to ensure the pizza is still fresh. Like...get a fiance...don't do that...THIS IS GODDAMNED R******D
