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.

Our landline number had been recycled from someone into writing bad checks. For years we had to tell collection agencies she never lived at our address.

A while later, when doing a routine job background check, turned out her address had been linked to my name! Took a LOT of calling to untangle all that. We just ended up canceling the landline.

    See this is the thing. Iirc the debt collector was one of the people who clued me into the Jr/Sr thing. I said I was pretty sure he was dead and they were like "no that's Sr we're looking for Jr."
