As pointed out above, there is probably a fine line between being friendly and intrusive.
I had a lamp post light go out, and did not notice it until the neighbor mentioned it. I thanked him, and took care of it later that day.
I like neighbors looking out for neighbors, and for that reason, I give out our contact cards, so one of them can contact us if needed.
The bottom line is that what one person finds acceptable another may find intrusive, no solution, just an observation.

All situations are different. You met this lady, spoke with her, you had a good vibe and experience.
Skulking around in the dark and leaving anonymous notes is downright creepy. Me I'd be ****ed, another might be afraid. Either way it's just plain wrong. When I say to myself, I wouldn't think of doing such a thing, that in and of itself is reason for me to doubt the soundness of judgement of such a person.
