Houston, Texas

Mr. Guerra was well known in his neighborhood for collecting cans on his bike. This bike was placed soon after his death and the memorial placed by his family can be seen in the background.

Report from KHOU:

A 79-year-old man riding his bicycle was struck and killed by a driver Monday night in northeast Houston.

"He'd give you the shirt off his back and the money out of his pocket," said Theresa Guerra, the victim's daughter-in-law. "He was the best man. He's been my father-in-law for 27 years. My kids loved him. Everybody."

Family members said Lorenzo only recently started riding his bike after he was hit by another car back in December but survived. Police have not said if charges will be filed against the driver.
