parents' coffee kindness in honor of late daughter goes viral

As Alyssa grew up in Erie, PA and was set to attend my alma mater, all of my friends have been linking to her family's story on Facebook in every way, shape, and form. This is quite amazing.

Quote:
On the last day of her life, Pennsylvania teenager Alyssa O’Neill texted her parents with a simple request: That they take her for a pumpkin spiced latte the next day.

But on Sept. 4, the 18-year-old died of an epileptic seizure, just a year after being diagnosed with the condition.

Two days after the funeral for their eldest of their four children, Jason and Sarah O'Neill decided to pay it forward in her memory.
See the Facebook page honoring Alyssa, with people around the world showing their support and paying it forward:
