She asked her to come inside and meet her dad...that's where I lost it 😭🤧
me too. And meet her Dad "for the last time".
same
“ this still proud daughter” 😭😭
Lost my mom this month. She's stronger than I am.
Me too.
Her dad's in there somewhere. He made this happen. And Steve Hartman needs to be in Hall of Fame, for journalism above and beyond
Allah (S.W.T.) made this happen. The dead have no power over the living. All the souls who have passed on are now in another dimension called the “Barzakh”, awaiting the day of resurrection when all of us will be taken into account for what we do. It is Allah who commands the dominion of the heavens and the earth. The source of happiness and success is through turning to Him alone.
May Allah (S.W.T.) guide the mother of this beautiful child and grant both of them eternal life of bliss in Jannah. May Allah guide you and anyone else reading this comment. May Allah (S.W.T.) keep me guided and steadfast in His religion, Islam.
Ameen
@@NazmusLabs ameen.
@@rackiaa3715 ❤️
I am thinking the same thing. her father sent this wonder woman and her beautiful Dog there to comfort this little girl on this day.😇❤🐩
@@NazmusLabs LOL
A child's innocence is so pure and loving. We can't all just stay that way??!
Unconditional love is only learned by the pure.
Life, it makes us harder and detached.
It's so unfortunate that we can't. :(
Amen
This world would be such a wonderful place to be if we could always stay that way . ❤️😊
Her Dad sent her an Angel! That was her Dads way of helping his daughter with her heartache, not sure if it is the dog , the lady, it is probably both who are the Angels!
@C Mont....Amen, 😇 Angels come in all shapes and sizes🙋🏽♀️💕
Her dad did not send her an angel. Allah (S.W.T.) sent her that person (possibly she is an Angel, Allah knows best. Guidance and happiness comes from turning to Allah alone. Allah sends these blessings and angels to all of us, yet most if us are not grateful. Allah (S.W.T.) calls us to Him through blessings and trials, so that those who have a pure heart may turn to Him for guidance and salvation.
There is no god worthy of Worship except Allah. Allah is one, the unique, the creator of all of us and every thing. The dominion of the heavens and the earth are under His command alone. Allah (S.W.T.) has no sons or daughters nor does He have any partners. Jesus, Moses, Noah, Muhammad (peace be upon them are all but messengers of Allah.
That was exactly what I was thinking. And her mom too, to be so lovingly able to allow this connection and not interfere or compete. I am holding them all in my heart.
@@NazmusLabs Keep your opinion to yourself. Geez.
@@joecooksey4331 The original comment is an option. The hypocrisy in your reply is shameful.
Anyway, the truthfulness of Islam isn’t an opinion. It’s a fact based on solid evidence. If you don’t believe me, you can look it up yourself.
I never forgot the woman who realized I was sitting alone and broken-hearted at my brother's funeral. I was 13 and my 17-year-old brother was my best friend. At the funeral, everyone had their arms around someone to comfort them but I was alone. I remember her looking over at me and moving over to my side and wrapping her arms around me. It doesn't take much to make someone feel better... just a kind heart.
Oh my God that is so heartbreaking! I'm sorry you had to endure that. I'm glad someone was there to comfort you!
So sorry...hopefully this will move someone to be so kind
@@barbieblue3336 Always... = )
@@kanthony1446 Thank you for your kindness. I had the opportunity to thank her years later. She hadn't known the huge part she played in my life.
@@g.w.hampton5525 That's wonderful. I bet the moment you thanked her, it shined a little light in her life too!
I'm sitting in a McDonald's in Johannesburg South Africa and I'm trying my hardest not to cry. This is beautiful.
💖
💕💖💞
They have McDonald’s in Africa? 😮 wow
@@iiamze21 you name it, all the brand's are here.
@@ashsol2657 do it look like the one in Cleveland or are they made differently
This woman is just so special. How kind of her to indulge the wishes of a child. Many blessings.
I admire her emotional IQ and social skills. I mean, to go in a funeral without knowing anyone, it's gonna be tough for me, apparently not for her.
They're usually the only one's worth indulging nowadays
I feel bad for the little girl. Her dad won’t be there for all the important events in her life.
He will always be with her. Hes literally in her DNA. + I've heard that parents have a hard time leaving their children when they cross over. They want to stay and often times they do. Sometimes until grandchildren r born- when they know their child is grown and doesnt need* them anymore.
@@MammaKush88 So true. I always thought that was just something people said to make each other feel better ("He's still here blah blah blah"), but I lost my dad 2 months ago and not a day goes by that I don't feel him with me. Closer even than before.
We kids are all grown and well, but he stays for my mom, his wife of 51 years. Not even death can part them.
@@llkg9 that's beautiful. Loss is hard but it is also an integral part of this existance.. and because of that, there is a certain beauty to it.
Ur father will always be with u and in any subsequent offspring in his bloodline -- as it is with his predecessors n so on.
Many people look at ancient ppl as primitive and dumb... but all throughout human history there has been these undersrandings.... in the history of every culture, race, region of the world.
Ur father will wait with ur mother, and they will be together again. And perhaps their energy will manifest in several lifetimes together. Love is strong like that.
I lost my dad when I was 9. I know the feeling
Yes he will. When you cross over, you see everything (especially what you missed)! That’s when all life’s questions are answered💖💖
51 yrs old n bawling like a baby... Makes me so happy to see the love this girl STILL has for her daddy...
Right there with you brother. @ 53 years old.
70 and can't hold back. Lost it when little girl asked to come in and see her dad.
I’m 47, lost my Daddy 12 years ago. When it comes to us girls and our daddies, we are all still little girls and will always love and be proud of our daddies.
Sweet child who loves her daddy omg sweet story children can really surprise us with the things they do god bless that daddy RIP my brother that little girl will never forget you !!!!!
The jogger is an angel on Earth. I think God sent her and the puppy to help the little girl.
Your claim is contradictary to the notion of free will.
@@TallSilentGuy Stuff it, Mr. Theologian
YUP
He did! Amen!
@@TallSilentGuy Nope! You can have free will and also divine intervention can happen. Free will is what you choose to do.
I keep telling people.... Dogs are magical. I'm so sorry she lost her Daddy. I just lost my daddy too.
Sorry to hear that
I'm so sorry for your loss
I’m sorry for your loss!!!
Deeply sorry for your loss of your dad. Peace to you & your family.
So sorry for your loss
Bless her little, broken heart. A moment of kindness from a stranger and attention from a fur baby made a difference for that adorable girl. ❤
It was really bold of me thinking I was emotionally strong to watch this
Forreal 😂
Lmao seriously
IKR?
It's just the onions. Way too many in this video...
I know right. Especially me sitting on a public train, wiping my tears.
It’s the invitation of still introducing a stranger to her father part that gets me 😞😭🙏🏽❤️
Every time I hear on the road I should know by now there’ll be tears
😭😭😭 these videos really know how to get you 😂
Everytime!!!
What a beautiful story. All dogs go to heaven 🐾
@Amelie Says Hola...Cats go to Heaven too!
☀️ 🌈🐈💕🐈⬛💕🐕💕🐕🦺🐾🐾🐾🐾
I believe that too.
I just had to have my Labrador of 10 years put down. I hope there is a pet heaven. This story is so what this world needs and I'm so thankful the little girl has a new friend to help her.
@@prowlamongus they'll be there until they meet you at the gates
The kindness of a stranger and the healing power of a puppy. That says it all right there.
Hello Tracy
How are you doing? Hope you and your family are safe
I bring my dog with me everywhere. She's not a social dog, but I know how it can brighten up one's day a bit to see a dog. She's cheered strangers up when they have a bad day. I can't imagine Raelynn's loss, but I am so glad Emily and her dog were there. I hope the three of them remain lifelong and happy friends.
I lost my father seven years ago today and I still miss him and I am an adult.
All the love ❤️
It never goes away till we meet again.
@georgewilliamsiii4677 I lost my father now ten years ago, the anniversary was two days ago. 💔 It seems like yesterday at times and when I look at the changes in my younger generation it seems like forever ago.
Well I just bawled! The little girl's innocence of asking to pet the puppy then asking if the lady wanted to meet her dad because of her pride towards her father is as beautiful as it is heartbreaking! I'm glad their paths merged that day! And what an incredible woman to walk into a funeral of someone you don't know wearing workout clothes all to appease the love of a girl for her dad! I lost my dad 2 and a half years ago when I was 25. But at the hospital before and during my time to say goodbye I turned back into a little girl who just wanted her daddy to hold her and tell her it was gonna be ok. Losing a parent is incredibly difficult as a literal part of you is gone. And it feels so weird that I don't still have 2 parents on this earth. It feels wrong in a way because you almost look at your parents as immortal and infinite when they aren't. My thoughts and prayers go out to this family and to anyone else struggling with the lose of a parent.
God bless you may God comfort you your words compelled me leave you a message
I'm not very eloquent but my heart goes out to you
You got me again Hartman... 😭 damn
Every time 😭😭
Nothing heals the soul like puppy breathe and dog slobber. Love this story.💓🐾🐶💓🐾🐶🙏
@Be Truthful Nowork....Amen🐕💕
yeah
My dad just died of stage 4 colon cancer at 51 on February 2nd. He was diagnosed with it at 41 and lived 10 years. I'm 10 years older than that little girl and I can't even imagine how she's fighting through it so young. I hope she gets a puppy if she doesn't already have one. Dogs are the best and keeping the family in my thoughts ❤
I am a grown man crying my eye's out. My dad died at 43 of Leukemia i was 22, that was 1982 and i still miss him. My heart goes out to that child and that woman. The empathy that she showed a child she doesn't know, was heartwarming. God bless them all 🙏
All the love to you mate
@@franksinatraaintmydadnah3907 Thank you 😎
I can’t even catch my breath. What a beautiful friendship at just the right time.
Hello
How are you doing? Hope you and your family are safe
Beautiful and sad all together.
Agree 100 💯.. Not a dry eye among these posts 👾🦚
Ugh. That pooor kid. At least she’ll always remember her Dad loves her, no matter where he is. And he sent this puppy and the woman at that moment.
Hello Jessica
How are you doing? Hope you and your family are safe
I’m not surprised that a woman whose dog is so clearly loved would also be so compassionate to a little girl she’d never met. The most shocking thing? She wasn’t closed off with headphones on, staring at her phone. She actually heard the little girl and stopped. I’m criticizing myself, too: we used to be more open to each other and aware of people right around us who might be hurting and in need. Seems like that little girl’s dad was a wonderful man and his and her mom’s influence have already inspired her to be a kind and loving person. Truly loving animals is so good for us - and for breaking down barriers between us and bringing out the best in us.
❤❤ The Kindness of A Stranger ❤❤ I am crying for this little girl with the loss of her Daddy🙏🙏 And for the Kindness shown to this little girl 🥰 from this young lady 💖
Hello jill
How are you doing? Hope you and your family are safe
"She helped me feel better by her kindness....." Please take notes everyone. Because for this story that little kid is smarter than anyone in the room......
Absolutely got chills. Humanity at its finest
So sad. My daughter lost her dad at 17. She misses him so. We all do.
Peace Love and Blessings to you and yours!✌❤🙏
Blessings friend.
Condolences it’s hard losing a father as a teenager 💯
😭😭😭 She got to introduce her daddy one more time. Dogs are some of god’s gifts to man and in that moment he was the bridge these two staggers needed in order for pure love to be shared. When the little girl said “her kindness made her feel better” it made my heart so warm!
Hello
How are you doing? Hope you and your family are safe
Angels do exist and that jogger with the dog who showed such a kindness to a grieving young girl is one of them.
Well this caused me to have what seems a water main break in my eyes 😔 rip to her father and I hope that women lives a long and amazing life. She has a true heart of gold and hands down is an amazing person
I lost it when Steve said about it being the last time she gets to introduce her dad
Oh my. What a sweetheart. Im glad she went in and met him for her. I bet you it met a lot to the girl 😊😊😊 beautiful
A sweet and kind woman!
Hello Sharon
How are you doing? Hope you and your family are safe
I am a grown man and I am crying feel for the little girl and the family
One stranger,one dog and a little girl whose dad passed away and the comforting compassion enveloping all those present
Steve hartman is a gem
I couldn't hold back the tears from such a touching story of the young girl. This video hits close to home because my dear Mom passed away from Dementia last year and even with tears in my eyes I love talking about my Mom to others. What a sweet young girl inviting a stranger to see her Dad for the last time. My heart breaks for her. I wish her and her family the best.
We need more people like her in this crazy world.
I'm crying...this was beautiful.
This is so beautiful. I just got a dog 2 weeks ago. I hope my dog can help people warm up to me. I’d really like to help people. I’m hoping my pup will open those doors to me.
I know your dog will enrich your life like you can't imagine. My dog did it for me. She died a month ago and I'm lost now, but the time we had together was SO worth it.
This is where a man comes to cry.
Lending you a virtual shoulder.
I lost my mom a year ago when I was 29 and I'm still mourning to this day. I can't imagine a child her age growing up with a parent not there. Poor kid.
there is nothing like a dog to remind you to smile again!
Angels among us! God bless them all ✌️💕
Hello Nancy
How are you doing? Hope you and your family are safe
This story gave me goosebumps and brought tears to my eyes. I'm grateful for the earthbound Angel's that God has assigned to us. I'm grateful for fur babies aka emotional support dogs 🐕 aka man's best friend. I'm grateful that God allowed her father to give her peace while he laid in state. This is a wonderful story for ALL little girl's who lost their daddy's like me. God bless all of us who are grieving. 💜
I’m so sorry you lost your dad 🥺😢
God bless you my condolences may God bless and comfort you
There are angels everywhere, whispering in our ears. We just have to listen with our hearts.
Well said!
I cant understand why I have all these tears all over my face. I'm not crying, you're crying!
Life truly is to short. To bad we all can’t get along better with one another.
I’m a grown man... this made me tear up. Truly amazing.
God put these 2 people together at the right time, we never know where we are needed. Just a reminder to open your heart and always be kind. This little girl is a trooper and she will be okay. God bless you all.
I have restored faith in humanity. This is just way too bittersweet.
'She made me feel better...by her kindness' - Tears incoming!
Thank You CBS!!! This Story Brightened My Friday Afternoon!!#!!!!!
This was hard to watch on so many levels. Just thankful to that lady for having kindness in her heart to stop for the girl. Dogs are the best healers I feel.
Am here in Great Burgers Uganda...tears rolling out of my eyes....
Dogs are truly man's best friend !!
The last time to introduce her dad…the kindness of a stranger a little girl so proud of her dad. Priceless
Tears, both sad and happy.
that lady is a class act....
Call me soft. I don't care. I'm crying. God bless those two ladies and the loving dog.
World needs more people like this 👍❣️
I totally understand this girl... my dad died 10 years ago when I was 29.... and I’m still feeling like a 10 year old crying for my daddy
I found out this past week that my dad's cancer has come back this time in 3 different places. I'm alot older than this little girl but when I returned home ,after taking my father home from the doctors appointment last Wednesday, telling my husband the news I went to our fur babies and just cried for what seemed like hours.
God Bless this little girl.
This is the sweetest thing I've ever heard. 💗
We can all be that kind stranger to someone! Steve Hartman’s on the road is the gentle reminder of humanity that we need ❤️
Hello Jenny
How are you doing? Hope you and your family are safe
Wish I had a had somebody come by with a puppy yet when I lost my dad
Coming from Bermuda..This just made me cry 😭😭 the lady was just so sweet if everyone could show a bit off kindness and love the world would be a better place 🙏🏾🙏🏾❤ may your daddy RIP sweetie ❤❤
Wonderful human beings. Some of us would have ignored the opportunity with our basic excuses. I'm glad she did not.
Aww this made me cry. Thanks to the sweet lady for having a loving heart. I wish all people living had loving hearts.
Helloo
How are you doing? Hope you and your family are safe
This so heartbreaking as we just lost my father in law on March 3 2021 to colon cancer as well little one if you’re watching from our family to yours we wish you love and compassion as we know the loss too
"She helped me feel better.. With her kindness"😭💔
That little girl is so precious bless her heart. Her daddy is watching over her and proud of how strong and kind she is.
What a wonderful person to honor this little girls wish to introduce her dad to someone one last time even though as she said it “I was not dressed for a funeral”. Thank you for helping that precious little girl.
Ok so I'm not the only one crying. Timing is everything. Emily and Doggo Blue were that healing touch for this sweet little girl. Heartwarming story!
That was the right thing to do. What wise eyes to see that opportunity for ministry to that little girl!
Oh my. Beyond words with all the kindness
Omg! My eyes. Awwww 🥰🥰 Real superheroes really don’t wear capes. Bless this little girl as she navigates life without her irreplaceable daddy. As a daddy’s girl, I hurt for her. 😢😢
I’m glad there still good hearted people in this world!! We need it more than ever!!
No, there are no good people here.
I too am a grown man... My eyes are leaking... The kindness in this story is overwhelming... God bless all including and especially blu the dog.
This make me cry. Thank you
😢.dang man so sad.i saw his face an got goosebumps .u can tell he great person
An angel at the right moment. God is good. 👼
IN MY VIEW
It was wonderful how the child's heart, the woman's heart and the dogs tender gentleness bonded together healing her little broken heart. God is so good!
i lost my mom when i was little. i can see the confusion and hurt in this little girl's eyes still. it will always be there to a certain extent, too.
i wish i could protect everyone from knowing the loss of a parent. it's, truthfully, one of the hardest things most of us go through.
Nothing short of precious. Thank you for sharing.
Well put their 👍
So devastating for her to lose her father. Simple kindness truly heals the heart
Her father looked like such a kind man. No wonder she was so proud of him.
Aww, that is so heartwarming. God bless them. ❤
Why loving God, and your neighbor, is important.
Lost my old man at 12. Holding back tears watching this.
The little girl knows exactly how to put it "she helped me feel better, by her kindness"
Thank you for telling this most awe engendering story. Love is all and love is everywhere as say the Beatles.
All the feels, this got my bawling in less than 20 seconds.....
Hello
How are you doing? Hope you and your family are safe
She's a smart, wonderful child who knows exactly what's important in life.
