Our Kidde Hero of the Week story shines the spotlight on a random act of kindness and paying it forward!
Kix saw this story on GMA and wanted to share it with you!
Jimmy Gillespie popped the question to Liz Jensen on January 25th in Provo, Utah, and the couple immediately started planning their May 1st nuptials, but they had no idea what a complete stranger was about to do to impact their wedding day.
On a solo trip to look at wedding dresses, Liz found THE dress. She was on her way to pay for it when she was told that another bride-to-be, who had seen her in the gown, had already picked up the tab! The woman wanted to be anonymous and left before Liz could thank her. Needless to say, Liz was shocked and beyond grateful.
Liz couldn’t wait to get home and share the amazing news with her fiancé… When she did, they decided to use the experience to personalize their wedding reception and pay it forward. So, the couple will place a copy of their story on each of their guest’s tables where guests will pledge to be kind and do a service for someone else.
