Buck Chew

We ran into Buck Chew, 95, a charismatic and dapper Chinatown local with a penchant for colorful ties. He was on his way back from the grocery store picking up a few essentials. You may recognize him as Butterfly Buck from another post. We almost didn’t recognize him with this ladies sun hat (more like a halo)! But we saw that tie and noticed it was our old friend.

We helped him carry his bag of ginger and bok choy in and spent time time with his wife Len Wuey and daughter.

We asked about their keys to longevity. They rarely eat out and eat lots of fresh veggies, ginger and fish.
