The reddit user shared a picture of the restaurant’s note, along with the touching message:

“For every one of their anniversaries, my dad took my mom to Red Lobster, as it was her favourite restaurant. He passed away in March from cancer and today, on what would be their anniversary, my sister took mom to keep the tradition alive. They found this in place of their bill.”

BE INSPIRED BY THESE RANDOM ACTS OF KINDNESS

The restaurant’s touching note reads:

“We are sorry to hear about your husband’s passing, but we appreciate your loyalty in spending 31 years of your anniversary with us. For your appreciation your meal is on us! We look forward to spending your next anniversary with us?

Sincerely,

Red Lobster + your server, Taylor”

Further comments on the post show the restaurant’s discretion in the situation, with one reading:

“The waitress asked if there was a special occasion or if they were just hungry. My sister explained that my parents had been going there every year for their anniversary. The waitress then asked why my dad wasn’t there and they explained how he had passed away in March. She said she was sorry to hear that and then it was just a normal meal like any other after that. Until they got the bill.”
