Joe

I had the pleasure of spending Sunday
afternoon with Joseph and his amazing daughter,
Mary. I was there to take photos of Joe, but
it felt much more like catching up with an old
friend. We listened to Louis Prima and he told
me stories about his job, his children, and his
life. And even though he wasn't always able to
form the words he wanted with his lips, his hands
were like poems sketching memories in the air.
It was a beautiful afternoon I won't soon forget.
