A touching moment was captured on camera outside a Chick-Fil-A in Maryland.

According to CBS Baltimore, a customer, who happened to be an elderly WWII veteran, had a flat tire in the parking lot. So the manager of the restaurant went above and beyond the typical expectations of customer service, and helped the man by changing his tire!

A fellow Chick-Fil-A employee snapped the photo of Daryl Howard, the manager, helping out Mr. Lee. The photo spread on Facebook after the employee posted it saying "Thank you Daryl, God bless your heart."

It's a touching story on a Friday, and a reminder for all of us to look for ways we can "pay it forward" and help one another out!
