Not having kids was the key to it. He was divorced from his first wife when he served and the second one just died of natural causes later on. He was a WW2 vet that served in combat, probably the most stress he ever faced. But he came back home at a time before veterans couldn’t get benefits unless they’ve been shot. He just went on about his simple life in East Austin indifferent to all the changes of the city and gentrification and inflated living costs that happened the past 20 years of his life.

Pretty soon, our children's children will only know them as pages in a book... The last of our Navajo Code Talkers are going too... I remember growing up and every year we'd travel to rez to see our heroes all up on a float during the fair. Larger than life and, despite their gray hair and tired bodies, they maintained that famous Navajo sense of humor and always smiled when meeting us kids. Now... there's so few left. It truly hurts to know that my kids (when I get around to having some) will probably never get to meet them or any WW2 veteran in person...

@@laurikotivuori1585 as a native Austinite, I realized he lived in a part of town that was the only place blacks could own property, pre-civil rights movement. The 926 phone numbers in town were the places 90% of blacks owned properties. If you were a black in NW Austin where I lived as a kid in the 1970’s, And as far as I know, he never had air conditioning installed in his home, not even window units. He lived every summer day and night until powers that be had it installed and he suffered pneumonia after remodeling of his home at 110-111. He was used to natural air before then.

Totally right about that, worked for 50 cents a day. Below poverty level today for sure. But he didn’t go hungry as far as I know. His generation was tough! They made the most out of what little they had. And as a black man that didn’t complain and worked hard, he had to take it in stride even more. They didn’t have equal rights back then and in the back of the line. He lived in east Austin because that’s the only place blacks could own properties back then.
