Nearly two weeks later, he still gets emotional thinking about that day. Pacheco has been selling popsicles in his neighborhood near El Salvador Park for 14 years. Villanueva remembers watching him work hard day after day.Now a barber, Villanueva came through for the longtime popsicle vendor. The viral video shows Villanueva cutting Pacheco's hair and the two having a nice conversation.
Pacheco has been through a lot. He's been robbed four times while working. He's lost loved ones during the pandemic, and after beating COVID-19 himself he couldn't work for two months."People don't want to work forever. They want to live life after, too, so I wanted to help him," Villanueva said.
