I didn't know him, but I appreciated his art on the wall that was a tunnel during the world fair in the alley by the train tracks. It's been a couple of years since he died. (He was killed, but I don't know why.) The picnic table by the elementary school cul-de-sac has collapsed, and the alleyway is closing up with greenery. I couldn't even find the Don't Give Up! sign. I go there when I want to walk away from people. I hope there will always be some places to get away from people in the city, like coyote.
