Restaurant owner drove 6 hours to fulfill woman’s last wish a few hours before she died in Outer Bank North Carolina

Heather Bowers, who was on her deathbed battling cancer, had expressed her last wish and it could only be fulfilled by Mama Kwans restaurant.

An act of kindness goes a long way as it not only leaves an impact on the recipient but also on the person who witnesses it or hears about it. In a heartwarming gesture, Kevin Cherry, the owner of Outer Banks restaurant Mama Kwans, went out of his way to fulfill the final wish of a dying woman. He visited her on her deathbed and gave her a desired gift, as per WAVY’s 10 On Your Side.

It all started when a woman named Heather Bowers, who had been battling final-stage cancer, had expressed her one final wish – to eat a pork plate from her favorite vacation spot, Mama Kwans in Outer Banks. Bowers, who stayed six hours away in West Virginia, was almost certain that she would miss out on her favorite meal but it took the efforts of her best friend Mary Simmons to plan something special. Simmons wanted to fulfill her friend’s last wish, so she contacted the owner of the restaurant with a special request. Cherry did not think twice before deciding to drive down six hours to provide Bowers her one last pork plate.
