Working a summer job doing Aluminum Siding and Gutter installations in Muscatine Iowa.

There were 2 or 3 crews and we’d come in at the end of the day to unload scrap and park the company trucks. Old Man Fxxxxx (to be differentiated from his son with the same first name) who had started the business but largely turned it over to his son and son-in-law - always came out to make sure we didn’t shirk off any of the scrap aluminum into the debris pile - is the one who broke the news to us.

I also remember my first nephew was born that same day or maybe the next. I wondered if maybe he’d be the reincarnation of Elvis, but really was kind of nerdy. Good kid, but no ‘cool’ quotient.
