Will Lee, who taught us that the young and the old have a lot to say to each other, that the gruff old man can have a heart of gold, and whose death taught us the importance of saying goodbye, would today be celebrating his 101st birthday.

It's a word that Will Lee himself used to describe Mr Hooper, so I've just always adopted it as part of my description of him :smile:
