In 2015, Jeff Louis worked as a pizza delivery boy in Mentor, Ohio. Many of his workdays were, unsurprisingly, similar. However, one encounter would radically alter his life.
Jeff generally starts his work day at 12pm, but he was asked to come in earlier than usual.
He received a request to deliver food to a local church. They had arranged quite the surprise for the 22-year-old male. When Jeff delivered the pizzas, the church surprised him with a tip of more than US$700.
After the event, Jeff was so moved that he decided to share his story by posting a video on YouTube. Jeff’s poignant story and tear-filled eyes have touched the hearts of thousands, and hundreds have expressed their support.
Jeff breaks up as he says, “The most amazing thing happened today…”
Jeff is a recovering and rehabilitated drug addict, after struggling with his addiction for years. In the video, you hear his voice tremble as he thanks all the people who helped him start a new life.
