This is great.

I had a barber back in the 50's who was pretty old, and his boxer dog was 17 years old the last time I saw him at the shop.

Three of my barber’s have died. The fourth is not far from the grave

Someone noted about the picture of him working that he’s not wearing glasses.

Yeah but he's 107 so I'm good..

There are barbers and there are hair stylists. I’d rather be a barber because they never dye.

Here's a picture of him at his other job.

His son Bob is 85. “He is in better shape than I am.

Except for that time his son was in the hospital.

But he earned his fee stuff years ago by paying into the system. I guess he didnt want to become someones political pawn and be chained to federal spending.
My goal too, is to work my entire life.. to serve others instead of eating of their table. To be free.
Well thats two of us.

My barber is 80. He has Rush on the radio in his shop and we frequently have prayer groups. The magazines are about guns, cars, planes and hunting. Customers are all over 55. He does a great job too.

Think about this...as World War 2 was ending in 1945, this man had already been cutting hair for nearly 25 years. There are a lot of people who "retire" after working 25 years.

I had an old barber when I lived up in Boston. He was pushing 90 years old and was cutting hair since he got out of the war. A very happy man who was always in a great mood. I don't think he ever took a day off as he was always there when I needed a haircut. He was always playing Frank Sinatra records too. He never got tired of hearing Frank Sinatra.

Started when he was 11 years old and still at it.
