The "Waving Man" dies at 91

The bay area media was quite confused when Joseph Charles started standing on his street corner and waving and smiling at commuters each day, encouraging them to smile as well. He passed away March 14, just short of his 92nd birthday. More than 200 mourners waved and smiled in his memory as his coffin left the church, including Berkeley's mayor.

Smile at someone today.
