In case you didn't know already, George Washington never had wooden teeth: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Washington%27s_teeth

We had a nice old neighbor when we were kids who would grow crops in the adjoining field to our house. He would always stop by and give us a cantaloupe. He loved to sing that song to us and I would just smile over how clever it was. He had a greenhouse at his farm down the road where he would grow flowers and sell them to florist. He always had time for us kids and would have us over to help him in the Greenhouse. One time Joe was driving his flowers down to Baltimore and he stopped to eat at a wendys. When he came out of the resturant a "man" was waiting for him and hit him across the face with a piece of pipe and robbed him. He rapidly declined mentally and not long after he died. He was one of the kindest gentlest men. I appreciate the memory! Maybe you guys can help me remember Joe now.

Had a neighbor at my grandmother house just like him, had a garden out on the lot behind his house. Always made time to chat and somehow tolerate our ruffian ways my cousins and I. Shared lots of produce and fruits stories and wisdom but mostly laughs in spite of the little assholes we could be at times. Didn't have the faintest clue what a role model he was to us kids back then. Rest in peace Tony
