One thing that I have been touched by was a great deed someone did, not just for me, but for a group of my friends as well. When one of my friends, I have known since I was a child, committed suicide, we all mourned. While helping out the family with this traumatic time, my friends and Ii tried to think of a fun event to help us remember him by.

I came up with the idea of the group of friends go to his favorite restaurant on the morning of his funeral. There was a total of about 20 people who showed up. The total bill was getting close to $200. There was a man sitting next to our group that asked me what the occasion was. I proceeded to tell him what it was.

When it came time to pay the ticket, the waitress came to me and told me the man that was sitting next to us had taken care of the bill for the whole entire group of people. The waitress proceeded to hand me a business card with the gentleman's information on it.

Afterward, I spoke with my boss, and was able to collect $300 to $400 worth of gift cards that I took to this gentleman. I donated them to him and his business. He touched my heart, and my friends’ hearts, in more ways than one.
