A grieving stranger chose a woman at random to act out a "selfless deed" to honour the memory of her dead son - leaving her emotional.
Tammi Bennett, was out walking when she was approached by a woman she had never met before on January 26.
The mystery stranger quickly handed her an envelope and insisted she had a "lovely day" before walking off.
Inside Tammi found a heartfelt handwritten letter and a £10 note, North Wales Online reports.

The note explained that the stranger, who signed the card "Jason's Mum ", had delivered the card on what would've been her son's 28th birthday.
Jason's mum said her son had sadly passed away from SUDEP (Sudden Unexpected Death In Epilepsy) - which is when a person with epilepsy dies suddenly and prematurely.
The writer explained that she had just one request- that whoever received the card bought a birthday cake with the money enclosed.
Jason's mum wrote: "My son loved Birthday cake, actually he liked most cakes,
"Please buy a cake and enjoy it with your family, cake is good any day of the year, not just on a birthday."
In a touching tribute to her son, Jason's mum also wrote a poignant reminder: "Family is so important, spending time with family is such a precious GIFT!"
Deeply touched by Jason's mum's words, Tammi, who is from Barry, south Wales, said the message had left her feeling "emotional" because she herself had been having a bad day.
Sharing the story on Facebook, she wrote: "Really made me emotional, and made me realise not everyone knows how lucky they are to have family who they can spend time with.
"It’s amazing what this lady is doing, keeping his memory alive by doing such a selfless deed to random people like me on the street, really cheered me up."
Tammi also shared a picture of a birthday cake she had bought for Jason, writing: "We did indeed buy a cake, shared it with the family and wished Jason a happy 28th birthday."
The Facebook post has since been shared by thousands on social media, with many sending Birthday wishes in Jason's memory.
The post has even reached Jason's mum, who has been in touch with Tammi to thank her for honouring her son's memory.
Although she didn't wish to be named, Jason's mum shared with North Wales Live that he sadly passed away in January 2020, at just 25-years-old as a result of SUDEP.
She hopes to raise awareness of SUDEP as it affects approximately 1 in every 1000 people with epilepsy and its cause it currently unknown.
