The newly reopened Country Diner in Hegins was packed during a lunch rush when a diner asked manager Lorrie Renninger if she could pay for everyone's bill.

"I waited on this lady, and it was time for her to pay her bill, and came up to the register and said she would like to pay for everyone's bill. I'm like, 'Are you sure?' and she was like, 'Yes'," Renninger recalled.

The anonymous diner paid $350 to cover all of the customers' meals. She also tipped the two servers a total of $100.

It was an act of kindness not only for the customers at Country Diner but also for the employees, especially during a difficult time.

"Business has been up and down. Even though we're opening, we still can't get the help, you know. We had to do reduced hours," Renninger said.

The woman wanted to remain anonymous, but employees want her to know how many people she touched by her generosity.

"I'd like to say thank you so much. You made our day, and it's wonderful that you do that," Renninger said.
