Allison Hall who is the manager of the Steakhouse Restaurant in Pine Bluff Arkansas cried tears of joy when one customer who did not want to give out her name decided to donate her entire stimulus check worth $1,200 dollars to the four employees and management of the restaurant as her thank you to them.
Due to the pandemic that has caused many restaurants to only have curbside service for their clients, the Colonial Steakhouse is only open for three days a week.
Allison is very happy that one customer gave away her stimulus money to keep her restaurant in business until they reopen as the state government officials give them the green light to resume their business of providing meals to their customers.
Thank goodness that they are some very generous persons in this world after all.

@Deepizzaguy It will not open before May 4th according to the authorities, but he needs to change the inside to be allowed to open, tables must be 7 feet apart and with Plexiglas separators. It's a lot of money to spend, he is considering to retire.

@LadyDuck I do not blame your cousin if he has to retire from his business due to the costs being too much for him to handle.

I am sure that your cousin's restaurant will open soon since there is hope coming soon that this crisis will end soon.

I am amazed that someone besides a celebrity would do this for a restaurant.

@Deepizzaguy — there are probably hundreds of people who are doing that, and they ask to remain anonymous. I’d like to think that, anyway.

@FourWalls I agree with you since being discreet is the best way to do good deeds.

I had a friend give me hers. between mine and hers, I was able to clear the 1000 of debt from the roof job we had to have last fall when it started raining in the bathroom, get a deep freezer, and pay off what I still owed the hospital from my last rounds of surgeries. This puts me at only owing another place 100 for some dental work. I still owe the CC like 5K, but it;s better tahn the almost 7k it was.

At least some of the debts have been taken care of.

@Deepizzaguy yep, once I pay the last thing off, which I think I owe another 100 on, then I can take that money and add it to whats going on the cc

That is incredibly sweet and generous, and there are some good people in the world that really don't get enough credit for the things they do.
