"santa" has been around for years. he walked the streets around ogden everday. my family would take him food and clothes on many occasions.sometimes we would just stop to say hello and see how he was doing. he wore my brothers shoes and jeans for the past couple of years. i saw him the other day at citco. we talked about how hot it was and he said "yeah, looks like snow". we shared a laugh and a hug. every time i saw him we would hug and he would thank me. i'd always say "no, thank you". some people would look at me funny for hugging the "homeless man" but i never cared. he was more than that..he was a man, a friend. to all that knew him, he was kind, funny, and witty. he was loved. as sad as it is, we must say goodbye. many people (including the kids) will miss driving by and spotting "santa" walking down the street with his scuffed up blue jeans,t-shirt, and backpack on. we hope he will rest in peace. OGDEN WILL MISS YOU "SANTA" !!!
