My grandparents\u2019 fiftieth wedding anniversary was last Wednesday.<\/strong><\/h2>\n

In keeping with their custom, my grandma Doris wanted to commemorate the date of my grandfather Walter\u2019s death, which occurred two years ago.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Wearing the navy blouse and pearl brooch he had given her, she decided to go to the same restaurant where they had celebrated each year. Even if it was just for one night, it gave her a chance to feel close to him once more.<\/p>\n

She saved just enough for the bus cost, ordered their normal lunch, and left a twenty percent tip\u2014everything she could afford. However, Jessica, her waiter, cruelly remarked about why she was \u201calone at her age\u201d and loudly ridiculed her for leaving \u201ctoo little\u201d tip.<\/p>\n

People looked around. Disgraced, my grandma packed up her belongings and walked home in silence, crying as she went eight blocks.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

She informed me what had happened the following day. I listened while I felt angry and hurt. I wanted Jessica to really see the consequences of her actions, not simply yell at someone online or write an angry tirade.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

This wasn\u2019t about retaliation\u2014it was about making sure she could never claim unfamiliarity of the harm she caused.<\/p>\n
