This is a prime example as to why it’s important to alway provide great customer service. According to Fox 28, two waitresses at a Manhattan steakhouse got an unexpected tip from their favorite customer who died last summer.

The waitresses, Maureen Donohue-Peters and her niece Maureen Barrie, only learned after his death that a wealthy art mogul who was a regular at their restaurant named them in his will, according to ABC station WABC in New York.

Robert Ellsworth was a self-made multimillionaire and while much of the art world knew him as the “King of Ming” because of his extensive Asian antiques collection, he insisted that everyone at Donohue’s Steak House call him Bob.

Donohue-Peters told WABC he was “very down-to-earth, very nice. He’d help anybody.”
