Farry Pelzer Age: 67 Where ya from? Germantown. I see you just finished grocery shopping. What did you get? Before I knew it, I got loot. (He motions to bags of food and cases of soda and juice covering his entire back seat.) My old lady gotta get the milk . . . she forgot the milk for the kids, so she went back in. I go back in, I know I'm gonna spend! Are you originally from Philly? Yeah. I'm from all over Philly. North, West. Wound up in Germantown. What do you do for a living? I'm retired. I worked for the city doing maintenance work in the schools. I was in the service. What branch? Marine Corps. Did you raise your kids here? Yeah. How many kids? I raised nine or 10 kids total. Not all the same woman [mother]. They're mostly grown now. I lost one, Patricia Panzer. She had a heart attack. That slowed me down. But I have four kids in school, one girl's in the Navy, so things are good. What's your favorite thing about Germantown? It's a decent area. I love it. I ain't planning on going nowhere. - Morgan Zalot
