I went to Northwestern as did five other members of my family. The stories of the Sandwich Man are a part of my Northwestern experience as much as anything. He was soft-spoken and gentle and warm. The film captures him so well. His family should know, and probably certainly does, that he touched so many lives in such positive ways.
