My uncle who is 97 years old lives in Malvern, Arkansas and he is known as "The Candyman". Jim Issack started visiting the "old folks home" about 40 years ago taking fruit and candy to everyone. He said they all need a hug, handshake, and someone to talk to that cares. He still drives all over Malvern shares a kind word, a joke, and a sweet treat.
