A wonderful thing happened after my husband and I came home from Mad Martha’s on Saturday night, August 22.

As we were getting ready for bed, we realized my husband must have left his purse either at the restaurant where we had dinner or at Mad Martha’s in Vineyard Haven. It only had his wallet, credit cards, cell phone with all his contacts and glasses.

We were getting ready to start calling when our house phone rang, and it was one of the young staff from Mad Martha’s. They had found the purse on the counter and used the phone to see the number most called. We went back down and got there before they closed at 11 p.m. to retrieve the lost items and reward them for the great service they had done. They absolutely, positively would not accept anything but our thanks.

Talk about integrity, honesty and empathy in major doses. This was definitely it. Thanks to all the Saturday night staff at Mad Martha’s in Vineyard Haven.
