Joel Cervantes Macias noticed 89-year-old Fidencio Sanchez as he was pushing his popsicle cart in the Little Village area of Chicago. He and his wife have recently lost their only daughter and they’d been selling popsicles to pay the bills. Then This Fidencio’s wife fell ill and couldn’t help him with the cart anymore, so he was struggling to push it alone.
