“A story of kindness”

“Dear PoPville,

On Wednesday, a group of 11 Northwest Neighbors Village members had a lively lunch at Steak N Egg Diner on Wisconsin Avenue. In the middle of our meal, we got the most amazing surprise when our waiter came in to say that the young couple who had been sitting at the table next to us had paid for our entire bill of over $250!

We were absolutely floored by their kindness and generosity. They did peek in after we were told, so we were able to thank them in person, but we were so surprised that we didn’t think to get their contact details to send a thank you note. We all hope they know how much it meant to our group, and we all left the lunch with smiles on our faces. Thank you for this random act of kindness and we will be “paying it forward!”
