📋 About Lorenzo

Lorenzo built his own house at 35 and then built a second one just to see if he could. He now applies his woodworking skills to elaborate birdhouses and furniture that the staff politely pretends to have room for.

Lorenzo's Story

The following is a transcript of Lorenzo telling their story in their own words.

Ehhhh??? Ehhhh? What? Who are you? I didn't order soup. GO AWAY, I'm trying to nap. If you're from the front desk, tell them I said NO to the field trip. I'm busy.

Lorenzo, 77 years old

💬 What Lorenzo Says About Having a Sponsor

The shuffleboard activities are magnificent. I have been training since 4 AM every morning and I am now undefeated. Some say I take it too seriously. Those people have never held a champion's trophy made of laminate.
