Little Brooklyn
Dopson didn’t know the family personally, but Brooklyn Andracke was a huge fan; he was her favorite garbage man. This 3-year-old liked to see that big truck coming down the street, and she ensured that everyone knew it.
Waiting for Him
She and her mother would wait at the window every Thursday, waving at the truck while it went through town. This was the highlight of the child’s week. Traci Andracke, her mother, said Dopson was their favorite garbage man because he always wore a smile!
