When 16-year-old Brenden McGee, an employee of the local Whitey’s Ice Cream, went to take his next order, he was greeted with something terrific. On the speaker was a woman crying so deeply that she could barely speak in full sentences.
She tried to get her order across, but her sobbing prevented Brenden from hearing anything intelligible. It was mournful. Finally after a few tries, he was able to write down what she wanted and request that she pull up to the next window.
After moments of consideration, Brenden decided to do something unexpected.

He was determined to make a difference and do what he could to cheer up the mystery woman. When she reached his window, he looked at her, smiled, and said, “your shake is on me tonight, you have a good night!” The gesture shook her more than he could have realized.
