Oh how I remember Mr. Pie Man. I used to go to his house in Voskowville (Gentilly area) and purchase many pies. Big Joe was there to greet us and hand the pies out. Many years would pass, a direct kinship would develop (my son is kin to the family), and many memories would come to life. Thank you for being a part of our lives.
Thanks for documenting this important initiative. I grew up eating those pies and believe others should have the opportunity to learn about Omar the Pie Man!
