    I hadn't seen an update on Angel since last year so I decided to take a trip to Google. Looks like he's still doing really good, and as of late November 2023, actually went to Washington DC (first time ever for him) and got the President's Award from the National Trust for Historic Preservation for his work on preserving Rte 66. It's only the fourth time EVER that award had been given.

He is doing wonderful and enjoying his time off.. he will be 94 years old in few days.. she is a sweet woman. Glad I met her.

    I love seeing the old timers still killing it in their craft. Reminds me so much of my master when I was an apprentice barber. Used to always talk about things that happened to him when he was starting out, he would tell you the same old stories the same old way and exactly the same lessons just to make sure you remember. It almost makes you believe they could not even think about their job and still do it perfectly, even blindfolded.
    My master has been on the other side for a few years now but I always remember how he used to be, I swear sometimes I can feel him standing next to me watching like a hawk and ready to give you slap behind the ear with a comb.
    Respect your elders people, they're the ones who got you there.

      Sounds like your master was a good man. You were lucky to have him as a mentor instead of someone who wasn't passionate about their craft.

      I'm a truck driver by trade. I totally get it. I train new drivers from time to time. Out of the five I've trained only one is still in it. To learn a trade one needs to love to learn the trade.
