Jets quarterback Josh McCown thought he was making a standard grocery run on Father's Day, but instead witnessed a heartwarming father-son moment.

The kid working the bags was a special needs young man with a million dollar smiled named Zach.
He was happily taking our items, sometimes one bag per item and loading them in the cart. The clerks frustration grew but Zach slowly but surely got better with each bag.

He stood there as any parent would with great joy on his face encouraging Zach with each item he picked up. It was the perfect picture of what being a father is all about.

I want to say thanks to my DAD for being there and cheering me on all these years. To all the fathers out there Happy Fathers Day!
