Henri

This is Henry, he's the local scrapper that's been in my neighborhood for over a decade.
I really enjoy Henry. He's helped me with some alley/garage moving stuff in and out in the past, He liberated a DVD I wanted from a player I was handing to him by taking the whole machine apart for me.
I had been to dinner with my neighbor Gary and walking back home I spotted Henry outside of 7-11.
I had watched Storied Streets last week (and so should you) and wanted to tell Henry's story so I was happy to encounter him. He and his wife live in a rent to own house about 3/4 miles south of me. They raised 7 children. Henry told me, It seemed like every time I touched my zipper she was pregnant!!!
He didn't make eye contact with me while telling me that.
He's 60. He was showing me lottery tickets that people toss into the dumpster without realizing they've won.
He's collected quite a bit of money with them.
He told me he really feels 'for the foreigners' who come here and don't understand the tickets. Once he verified a winning ticket for a woman who didn't speak English via gesturing.
People assume Henry is homeless. He's not.
