Salute Deacon!!I had one of the nicest things happen at church a couple weeks ago. I usually wear a western style fedora [broad brim] and there is a teen boy there who is autistic. He has kind of take a liking to me and he said he really liked my hat and asked if he could try it on [this is VERY unusual for someone autistic]. Anyway it was a hair too big but he really liked it. I had a new hat like it but in a different color that I had bought but it was a bit tight, so I had only worn it a couple of times. So I took it to Church and it fit him perfectly. He loves it and his Mom said she has to tell him to take it off!
As a follow up, he loves the hat and according to his Dad wears it everywhere. Turned out nice. And thanks to all who said kind words.Salute Deacon!!
To give a hat to someone and know it gives them true joy Is one of the true joys of being a hat guy.

And what did you tell him?At the grocery store I was approached by a gent who asked how much I would sell my hat for.
We had a great hat chat.

And I’m saying “Dang Bob! That’s a heck of a fine looking hat!”A nurse at my headache specialist’s office said in passing “That’s a fancy hat!”.
I was wearing this Bailey 100X beaver (pics from a while back):
