He fought a long hard battle with cancer, and 54 year old Mario got so much enjoyment from his long time job of cleaning the giraffe enclosures at the local zoo. This faithful zoo worker had a dying wish to see “his” giraffes just one last time.

 

He was wheeled into the giraffe enclosure when this happened...

 

 Giraffe gives dying man a good-bye kiss

 

The giraffe knew that there was something different and special about this visit, so he gave his devoted friend a kiss… a kiss good-bye that is.

 

We are sure that Mario was expecting to only give love to his giraffes, but the love that he received in return was ten times over.

 

Mario’s wish was granted by Ambulance Wish Foundation charity that grants dying wishes to the terminally ill.

Acts 20:35

And I have been a constant example of how you can help those in need by working hard. You should remember the words of the Lord Jesus: 'It is more blessed to give than to receive.'
