Mom Pays for Stranger’s Starbucks After 3-Yr-Old Dies—Then She Finds Out About Her Dad

They say God works in mysterious ways, but Katie Kavetsky knows that there’s nothing mysterious about her experience in the Starbucks drive-thru on Thursday, November 2.

As she pulled up to the window to pay for her order, the barista informed her that the car in front of her had paid for her drink. Katie was also given a card from the people who paid it forward which read:

“Enjoy your drink/treat on us. A random act of kindness to remember a sweet girl, Hannah, who would be 3 today.”

The card was signed, “Hannah’s loved ones.”

In a post she wrote “to Hannah’s loved ones” on Facebook, Katie describes how their random act of kindness was totally orchestrated by God.

“What you don’t know about your act of kindness, is that it meant so much more to me than just a free coffee. I lost my dad on Friday. And of all the days since I lost him, today was one of the hardest mornings without him. This morning I struggled to start my day, and thought a Starbucks would do me well, and then I was surprised with your kindness.

I don’t know who you are, or what you believe, but I truly believe that this morning, my dad, and your little girl, found each other in heaven and they wanted us to connect. My dad left my mom, my 2 sisters and my 2 nephews who he loved more than anything behind. And I know, if he met a little girl up there, he would treat her like his own grandchild and love her until one day when you meet again. I feel as though this was a message from him letting me know there is still good in this world and it will be ok.”

Katie thanked the family for their kindness and free cup of coffee, but says what she’s the most thankful for was the way their small gesture helped her in her grieving.

“I don’t know if this message will ever get to you, but I feel we will always have a connection through our loved ones watching over us.”

To Katie’s surprise, after her post was shared across the Internet, Hannah’s loved ones found her. It turned out to be a woman named  Rebecca Esquivel Makris, who is a friend of Hanna’s mother.

She says getting in touch with Rebecca and learning more about her story has made the random act of kindness even more special.

“In a world where there has been so much tragedy, I hope this random act of kindness reached those who need it most. There is still good in the world, and we all need to hear about it more.”

You never know what someone is going through, but we do know that kindness always wins. Share Katie’s story with your friends today, and let’s join forces to do random acts of kindness for others.
