Courtney was working a shift a the Lamp Post Diner in New Jersey. Despite being nearly eight months pregnant, she still balances trays like the best of them.
Her dad Brian Cadigan said of his 23-year-old daughter, “She’s a tough little girl.”
During her shift the hardworking waitress served a Voorhees Police Officer who spent just $8.75.
When it was time to pay the bill, Courtney was left shocked by what he had wrote on the check.
The officer had left her a tip of $100 with the message, “Enjoy your first, you will never forget it.”
Courtney and her family were so touched by the generous gesture they took to Facebook to praise the officer, despite him wanting to remain anonymous.
“I respect all officers so I mean it just gives me a higher respect for them and their job so it was just really awesome,” Courtney said, according to the Courier Post.
The Voorhees Police Chief, who wishes to remain anonymous, made a huge impact on Courtney.
“Definitely thank you and just it really means a lot. It’s been really hard saving for the last couple of months so it was really, really amazing,” she added.
What a kind-hearted gesture from this officer. Please share this uplifting story with your friends and family.
