Lefty's always been somewhat of a hero to me.
He's the same age as my Dad and they look enough alike that they could almost be twins.. right down to the up-downer hat.

I had a chance to visit with him a few years ago at a show.
He was sitting all by himself at the TFO booth and looking lonely.
I had books to be signed so I took advantage of no one else vying for his attention.
We had a nice conversation and I felt his love
He actually cracked a joke at my expense
