That sounds like Mr. Green to me. He has been walking that area since I was a kid. I hope that he is ok. Bless him!

I have lived in Ensley since 1985, I beleive his name is Mr. Green. When my kids were young we collected cans to celebrate Earth Day in recycling, we met him at the recycling business on Hwy. 29. He was a Ensley icon.

Does anyone know anything about how he is…. I’ve been thinking all day of him. I wish he knew that even though so many of us saw him but didn’t really know him that we are thinking of him. Does anyone know how he is I would like to send him flowers or something if he could have them. Please if anyone know will you please post.

He has been pushing cans as long as I have lived here. He used to come by my house once a week and pick up the cans me and my roommates had saved for him. He walks all over Pensacola looking for cans and never asking for money. He is great guy and I hope he will be ok, and also I hope they find some family of his. Everyone in Pensacola has seen him before, I am sure of it. He always wore a winter beanie, a jacket, and long pants no matter how hot or cold. He always wore the same set up. Just last week he came by my shop on Palafox and I filled his entire shopping cart of soda cans saved up by the guys in the shop. He came over with only 3 cans in his cart, and when he left, he was having a hard time keeping them from falling out. He had a big smile on his face and was always so appreciative to get cans. I wish I knew his name. He was never one to talk much. Just thankful and always smiling.

This sounds like the same man that walks Chemstrand between Johnson and 9 Mile. People leave cans out by the road for him. I have seen him multiple times but never actually met him.

Him and an older white man both collect cans and hang out in the bank parking lot in front of Publix at 9 mile/Pine Forrest a lot. They should try to locate him, perhaps he knows the man’s full name and if he has family anywhere.

I’m praying for him! He’s a sweet wonderful man! The ECSO on hood drive knows who he is or at least where he stays!
