His name is Daniel Romano.

He owns D'Romano's Pizza in the Throggs Neck section of the Bronx.

He didn't shoo her away.

"I grabbed her by the hand and I led her to the pizzeria and I went in the oven and I got her a fresh slice and gave it to her. Sat down and she started crying. I said, 'don't cry, eat. This is not a problem.'"

In that moment, he decided he'd never let it happen to anyone again.

So he grabbed a marker, wrote a sign by hand, and taped it in his window for the whole neighborhood to see:

"To the people eating out of my garbage, I have more love for you than you think. Please come in and tell me you're hungry. I will forever give you a slice and fresh water to drink."

When they asked him why, his answer was simple.

"Right now, I think this world is shot. There's too much hate. Too much negativity. Why not put a smile on someone's face?"

And it turns out this runs deep for Daniel.

It goes all the way back to his mother, Carmella.

"She had a saying in Italian. She used to say, 'a desperate person will always make a better decision on a full stomach than on an empty.'

"It always stuck with me. So I feed people."

A desperate person makes a better decision on a full stomach.

That handwritten sign has traveled way past the Bronx now.

Daniel says people are calling him from Texas, Arkansas, Hawaii, even Alaska, all wanting to chip in and buy slices for hungry strangers they'll NEVER MEET.

"Don't ask me, I didn't even know Alaska had a phone."

A Minnesota mother was found shielding her toddler from a fire, sadly she didn't make it but her toddler is expected to make a full recovery.

Bonnie Pierce, 38, was inside her home with two of her daughters when a fire broke out on Saturday afternoon. Pierce got out of the duplex, while one of her daughters escaped by kicking an air conditioning unit out of a window and climbing to safety. However, Pierce realized after getting out that her other daughter, who was just a toddler, was still inside and went back into the burning building to find her. According to reports, she was found on top of her baby shielding her from the fire and smoke. Sadly, Pierce was unresponsive and was taken to the hospital for treatment. She had sustained burns on 48% of her body and had been without oxygen for around 15 minutes. She died from her injuries on Monday. Both of her kids survived! She is truly a hero and was an amazing mother! She did what she had to do and that saved her baby's life !
