Waitress pays for her customers meal… and she opened facebook hours later and could not believe her eyes

This story may restore your lost faith in humanity, may even promote you into doing good for others, so please be patient and read on to see the full story, I was also touched myself when I read it.

New jersey firefighters Tim Young and Paul Hullings  are two firefighters that lived  up to their work, after working very hard that faithful day for 12hours  and moved to a  diner around 6am to request for the strongest cup of coffee the diner can offer things changed.

The waitress for the day was Liz Woodward, who happened to overheard their conversation, eventually they finish their coffee and went to pay their bills, and instead of the bills they got the picture and message below.

Tim responded to the gesture by posting it on facebook  “Such a selfless and kind act. I definitely urge my friends to make a trip out and support the business, and if Liz happens to be your waitress, tip big.

But the story doesn’t end there! The firefighter was told by someone on the Facebook post that Liz’s father, Steve, is quadriplegic and has been paralyzed for 5 years and that Liz set up a donation page a few months earlier to fund a wheelchair accessible vehicle so that she can take her father places”

Tim urged people on facebook, his colleagues to donate, “Turns out, the young lady who gave us a free meal is really the one that could use the help…"

The unbelievable happened within few days, people around have gathered more than $70,000 which is far more than the $17,000 needed for the wheelchair

"All I did was pay for their breakfast. I didn’t expect anything more than a smile,” says the waitress “It goes to show that you just have to be kind to each other and that even the smallest gesture can change a life.”
