The Final Chapter Of Dennis Lorenzetti's Story

A couple weeks ago I mentioned my dismay at learning of the death of Dennis Lorenzetti, a homeless man I chanced to speak with and write about one afternoon in the summer of 2009. Lorenzetti froze to death behind a low-rent supermarket last December; when a local journalist (and former colleague) named Rick Guinness learned of it, he searched online for any mention of Lorenzetti and contacted me after finding my story from July 2009.

This week Rick's story about Lorenzetti ran in the Hartford Advocate, the alt-weekly I wrote for until the Great Tribune Company Meltdown Of Aught-Eight.
