A Minor Character

A minor character in my life would be my barber. I don't know his name but I’ll never forget his face. He cut my hair in the seat farthest to the left all my life. I was disappointed whenever i got someone different, partly because each barber had their own style and i appreciated my barbers style the most. He was warm, friendly, inviting, and gentle. He was a southern man with hospitality to share. That to me is the ideal southern gentlemen. His small role in my life, once every few months, was that he influenced my childhood opinion of what a man should act like and treat people. A minor character to say the least, but an important one none the less.
