Respect to the hero of the day! Dalton Shaffer, of Steve’s Pizza in Michigan, drove more than 200 miles to Indiana to deliver a terminally ill man his favorite pizza.

25 years ago we lived in Battle Creek, MI. We were young and money was tight but every pay day, Rich would pick up Steve's Pizza for dinner. I can't possibly describe how delicious this pizza is - but several moves and all these years later, it is still the gold standard and we've never found a better pizza yet. Rich has frequently critiqued other pizza as "good but, it's no Steve's."

They moved to Indianapolis. Recently Rich landed in ICU for five days where he learned that his valiant cancer battle was coming to an end.

Rich is spending every minute reminiscing and visiting with family and friends.

The topic of that fantastic pizza must have came up, because his father in law contacted Steve's Pizza and spoke to Dalton and asked if the shop might send a friendly text or card to us.

Dalton asked what kind of pizza we wanted (by the way, Steve's doesn't deliver) and left after he closed the store. And so at 2:30 AM, Dalton rolled into the driveway, left the car running and delivered two extra special pizzas.

Dalton brought the best pizza in the world - at a really difficult time. While "thank you" hardly seems adequate - from the bottom of my heart, thank you, Dalton from Steve's Pizza in Battle Creek, MI for making your epic middle of the night pizza delivery!

There are heroes and great pizza among us my friends... and I'm thrilled to let you know about it.
