I'm relatively certain I know his name. He's either a Senior or a Junior. Various people have called asking for one or the other including, possibly, a debt collector.

One of the two died, probably about two years ago. There were like two or three people right at the beginning who were just trying to find the guy but at the time I thought like maybe he changed his number for a reason? Then very early on, someone called saying they'd heard he had died and was hoping he was still alive and would pick up, because they'd lost touch. I'm also pretty sure he was a churchgoing Christian. I think a lady from his church was one of the people trying to reach out.

That's most of what I have, but also I've never met him or spoken to him. None of it came from anywhere official. It's just the stuff people say when they think when they've gotten the number wrong except they're all asking for the same person.

6 years after I got my current number, and I'll still occasionally get calls for the woman who had it before me. Including: calls about her children's doctor appointments, calls asking if her home at [same address each call] is for sale, calls about the Nurse positions she applied for, and more. I know her name, address, job, and could have known her kids names if I remembered. I basically know her life at this point. I think she might keep accidentally giving out her old phone number.

One guy called absolutely pissed that he got Aids from the woman he was trying to call, but that could be a different person or wrong number because he never said their name. When he realized I wasn't the woman he was calling, he kept trying warning me about said woman but I kept telling him "WRONG NUMBER!"
