Who’s cutting onions?

The power of a few simple words can often be taken for granted but this clip of a widower hearing the voice of his late wife might just make you pick up the phone and call the people that you care about.

Stan Beaton had to endure the heartache of seeing his wife Ruby pass away in 2003 after a brave fight against cancer.

Aside from many happy memories, Stan cherished and frequently listened to a recording of her voice that was left on their voicemail because it provided him a timely reminder of the woman he loved.

Unfortunately for Stan, the voicemail suddenly disappeared but it has since been recovered by a team of 10 technicians who are working for Virgin Telecom.

Seeing Stan’s reaction to hearing his late wife’s voice is such a lovely moment.

This clip has just recently gone viral and you would have to be made of stone to not be moved by this.
