A man who walked into a bakery, determined to pay for his wife’s birthday cake early since he was scheduled for a risky surgery, never expected the kind and overwhelming response he would receive.

73-year-old Keith Hall walked into Cupcake Café on St. Joe Plaza Drive in Palm Coast, Florida, in late February to pre-book a cake for his wife’s birthday and had an interaction with the owner, Theresa Tazewell.
