Beautifully told piece. And painful. A friend of mine and I had lunch today and we were just talking about how the crimes in Detroit have gotten much more predatory in nature. Used to be if you weren't running with the wolves then you didn't usually have quite as much to worry about. You weren't necessarily all clear, but you didn't have to worry about folks just coming after you at random. Nowadays the desperation and rage is boiling over... Did you hear about the 91-year-old brother that was beaten in a stroe parking lot by a young brother who just wanted to steal his car? So why didn't he just take the car? Why did he have to beat the old man over and over and over and over? Hey Lester.

Sad circumstances surrounded them, but perhaps you were used at that moment to capture someone enjoying life as they know it before they departed this one. Ironic that instead of going to the cemetery to take pictures, you shot a picture of someone who was on their way to one (without even knowing it). My condolences go out to his family.
