REMEMBERING JOEY

Karen Dalton is an artist who lives near Bynum, North Carolina.  She recently wrote to The Story about someone she knew from her childhood in Newark, New Jersey, a boy named Joey.

Joey was a Downs Syndrome kid that lived on our block 4 houses from mine… Joey was not allowed out of the house. He lived on the second floor. [But] Joey spent his childhood playing with us from the windows in his house.
-Karen Dalton

Karen learned from her mother just this month that Joey passed away. He was 61. She talks to Dick about her poignant and fun memories of Joey's friendship.
