NauenThen

Goodbye to all that

The lobby of 157.
Saying farewell to Johnny's job involved a party on the roof of the building where he'd been handyman, porter, doorman, fill-in super for almost 20 years. (None of those pictures came out because my 15-year-old grandson swiped his hand in front of the lens till I gave up.)

I was gratified how many tenants sought me out to tell me how much they liked, admired, loved Johnny.

Johnny's one & only plan for the future: a cruise, which to me seems like the worst possible thing in the world, unless it's the Circle Line around Manhattan. Anyway, he doesn't have a passport so I don't think it can even happen.
