Budd Caldwell’s deep love for his wife Betty spanned decades and continued to shine after her death.

His wife’s favorite song was “Daisy a Day,” and he performed it several times during their 56-year marriage.

Bud would surprise his wife with bouquets of daisies when he could, sometimes breaking out into song as he presented them to her.

Sadly, Betty died one day in 2013. Leave Bud alone.

Yet Betty always remained on his mind; he always kept her close to his heart.

As a way of showing his lasting love and admiration for Betty, Bud bought a memory bench at Lakeside Park in Fon du Lac, Wisconsin.

The bench includes a small plaque with Betty’s picture, and some information about the woman Bud was proud to call his wife.

Every day, Bud visited this memorial bench to honor and cherish his wife. Often he would just sit, singing her favorite song. He talked to her about the ongoings of his life; about the weather, what was going on in the world and how much he missed her.

But when snow began to fall and winter arrived, it was made harder for Bud to visit Betty’s bench. It became difficult for Bud to lay flowers or even show his love as he would like.

On one particularly snowy day, Bud could only stand on the sidewalk and watch the bench from afar; the snow was simply too much for him to manage.

Little did he know that two strangers had noted Bud’s daily ritual and decided, in secret, to help.

Just watch the CBS news report below to see the selfless action that left me in tears.

It’s a story of love, kindness and two park staffers who will restore your faith in humanity.
