Aaron Collins passed away on July 7th 2012. He was 30. His final wish in his will, if he left enough money, was that his family have pizza and give the waiter or waitress a $500 tip. Aaron never had much money so his family raised the money through donations and fulfilled his last wish.
Brother Seth Collins and his family made a video to show donors how their money to honor his brother’s last wish was spent and posted it on YouTube. The video quickly went viral with over 2 Million hits. They now have a web site and have already collected over $60,000. Enough to give 120 waiters or waitresses a $500 tip! The memory of Aaron Collins lives on.
“Let no one ever come to you without leaving better and happier. Be the living expression of God’s kindness: kindness in your face, kindness in your eyes, kindness in your smile.” – Mother Teresa
