You might use the word charming to describe them, but that doesn’t quite fit the immediate connection you feel. There seems to be something inside them that goes beyond any sort of verbal descriptions you could use to explain the interaction. That’s how I found Walter Morris the first time I met him. The warmth in his smile, that particular glint in his eyes. Even the handshake had just enough squeeze to imply somewhat of a familiarity without going over the top.

At the time, I wouldn’t have been surprised to learn that he had a good number of grandchildren with whom he enjoyed quality time most weekends. Hell, he probably would have made for the p
