Please watch this movie: http://bit.ly/9NHMwp
Its about a man who is 56 and lives with his brother. His father was involved in the local school athletics program and Shorty (Walter) became part of the routine. Water boy, towel man, coach etc.. The documentary follows him around. Some times he sounds like a normal mundane man but his attitude and his loyalty are inspiring. You can see in the people that talk about him - strong strapping young lads playing football, old coaches, his brother, his nieces and nephews - how much he adds to their lives in ways they just never thought about.
Its available on Amazon. The significance of his age is that the average down syndrome adult dies in their mid 50's (ie 55) so being 56 is statistically significant.
