Pizza Chain Mellow Mushroom not only assisted a US soldier in sending a pizza to his wife in Florida for her birthday, they went above and beyond with a very generous gesture, making a memorable birthday for the Major’s wife.

Army National Guard Maj. Shawn Fulker knew how much his lovely wife Josephine loves Mellow Mushroom pizza, so he emailed Mellow Mushroom’s corporate office to ask that they deliver the pizza to his wife, along with a $50 gift card.

To make the request even better, Mellow Mushroom took it upon themselves to make the pizza a heart-shaped pizza, and accompanied the delivery with flowers and balloons.

“We had the cook make a heart-shaped pizza, and then we stopped by the nearest Publix (supermarket) to get flowers and then we picked up balloons, just to kind of make it special,” Brooke Chafee, a manager at the Jacksonville store said.

As if this story couldn’t get any sweeter, Major Fulker offered to pay for the pizza via credit card over the phone; however Mellow Mushroom didn’t charge him a thing…not for the pizza, the delivery, the flowers or the balloons!

Way to go Mellow Mushroom, you’ve gained the respect and admiration of millions with your thoughtfulness.
