Someone gives a couple $100,000

[50201]

I just saw a story on KCCI tv about someone that walked up to a couple in a restaurant and presented them with a signed blank check.

He told them to fill it out and they jokingly wrote in $100k. He said, "I'm good for it."

They took the check to the bank and he was good for it!!!

thats awesome. where did this happen at?

Some restaurant in Pella. I don't recall the name.

The restaurant employees didn't know who the benefactor was. They only said his check had an Ottumwa address.

I need to find a person with too much time and money to donate some finds to me!!! Where do I sign up???

That is cool-wonder if it was someone who looked like they needed the money maybe?

The donor happens to be an older gentleman that had just been to the doctor and said that he had no family. Apparently it was not good news. Now he will have the pleasure to donate his money and know that he gave it to people that could use it to better themselves. He had asked the couple if they had any children before he handed them the blank check. I really feel for the gentleman and I hope that by giving his money away it will help him with some closure.
