Chick-Fil-A workers Keith Christensen and Winston Savice, Jr. are national heroes after saving two customers trapped in their home due to the intense flooding in Houston.
Married couple Karen and J.C. Spencer decided to order breakfast burritos from a local Chick-Fil-A before the floodwaters began to invade their Houston-area home.

"We had to get out of there so I called Chick-fil-A, now that sounds kind of funny," J.C. Spencer said in an interview on Good Morning America Wednesday. "I ordered two grilled chicken burritos with extra egg and a boat. And can you believe that one of the managers of Chick-fil-A, she sent her husband to pick us up and we are so grateful."
Christensen and Savice arrived at the home on jet skis to rescue their valued customers and deliver the burritos they ordered.
"Karen jumped on the back of a Jet Ski and I jumped on the back of another one and they evacuated us to higher ground," J.C. explained.
Since the harrowing rescue, the Spencers learned the names of their rescuers and an unbreakable bond was forged instantly. ABC News recently connected the couple and their jet ski heroes and it was nothing but love.
"Thank you," J.C. Spencer told Christensen and Savice. "You're a hero."
"No problem, someone had to do it," Savice responded along with a big hug. "I'm glad to see you guys are safe."
Hurricane Harvey's wrath took away thousands of Houston residents' homes and possessions but this rescue proves that the storm, and the flooding that came after, did not take away their spirit. Watch the heartfelt reunion here.
