I guess I didn't clarify what I meant.  I mean by service being public as that somebody that appreciates the act knows.  Doesn't need to be everybody and probably the fewer number of people the better but there at least has to be one.  "Largesse" is a reputation just like "Prowess" and you simply cannot earn such a worthy reputation by being invisible or unknown.
 
What defines "Largesse" to me are those people who give of themselves to others without being a respector of persons.  Those that will help everybody and not just the in small defined group.  Somebody that will stop and help somebody when everybody else won't.  Somebody that will teach anybody with a desire to learn that asked to be taught.  From a Biblical perspective a cross between the Good Samaritan and the Widow's Mite.
