I cried because I had no shoes, then I met a man who had no feet.
Today is tomorrow's Good ol' days

Yes Ben, Buddy made a big impact on the planet and it still reverberates today. He was from very humble roots and made his mark in a big way.
Funny thing is that my daughter lived in an apartment that was literally on the same site as the Holley boys birth home ant where they spent the first few years. It was redeveloped years ago and is now very different, I also asked her to go to Buddy's grave site at the 60th anniversary of his passing, which was really neat, and she took a picture of the gravesite.
On another odd thing, a woman approached
me at a garden talk I did here in NJ recently told me that her father designed Buddy's glasses when he lived in NYC, I have no reason to not believe her, just another interesting story
