This is an inspirational story of a man who expressed his artistic talents and who put relationships before all other pursuits. He chatted with celebrities who dined in the Italian restaurants. He did errands for the older ladies in the neighborhood and influenced young people. He took care of his invalid mother, who accompanied him on the corner while he worked. He gave tourists postcards with his sketches on them to mail back to him when they arrived home.Irvin F.
