    I'll always remember him coming over and asking us to get him a case of water or fertilizer for his garden or a watermelon, cantaloupe and telling us how to pick the ripest one. Getting him gas for his lawnmower. Mowing our side yard and asking if our lawnmower was working if not we could borrow his. He never bothered anyone just kept to himself. My sincere condolences to you all.
