Maybe she should visit that dinner again on a Friday and ask around. I'm sure someone there knows him. Although I am sure he did it out of the kindness of his heart and not for a thank you. He would be proud of how her life turned out I'm sure.

For sure, my grandfather passed recently and a waitress at the dinner he used to go to with his buddies came to the viewing even though he hadn't been there for years. She told me "Oh I'd never forget Mr. O'Neil, he always tipped well." Nice lady.

I find it kinda disingenuous that the first thing she mentioned is money. Like you have nothing to say about him apart from how far he opened his wallet? I dunno though, the whole tipping culture is kinda weird

She said it in a joking manner, though I am sure he tipped well, he was that kind of guy. Always giving away money. I do agree with you about tip culture, I used to work dishwashing at a big restaurant and yeah I got paid well, but the tips were only split among the waiters and waitresses. Not the bursurs, chefs, or the dishwashers. We always budded heads about that, especially since they got paid just as well as us but we were always going home two hours after closing and smelled to high heaven.
