When Carlos Valdez and his wife order pizza from their local Papa John’s in Roy, Utah, they request delivery driver Derlin Newey by name. Newey, age 89, is enthusiastic on the job, and when he arrives to drop off their pie, he always delivers it alongside his signature quip, “Hello, are you looking for some pizza?”
The Valdezes have been posting videos of Newey’s deliveries on TikTok, where they have more than 53,000 followers. Here Newey is, making a delivery with a smile:
“How do I ever say thank you?” asked Newey through tears.
In addition to the monetary donation, the Valdezes also gave Newey a T-shirt emblazoned with his catchphrase, “Hello, are you looking for some pizza?”
What a sweet story!
“He needed this,” Valdez told the news station. “I’m just glad we could help him. We just need to treat people with kindness and respect the way he does. He stole our hearts.”
