People around the world emigrate to the United States seeking a better life. And many of them achieve their dreams by running a small business. Steve Doudaklian's family is among them. His father came to the U.S. more than three decades ago from Lebanon and opened a shoe repair business outside Washington that quickly became known for its quality services. In this story narrated by Amy Katz, VOA's June Soh introduces us to Steve Doudaklian, a fourth generation shoe craftsman.

good story, I also am an Armenian shoe repairman from Lebanon and I contribute to my community by letting the costumers decide the price of the repairs. The future is recycling what we have, the shoe repair business will be around for a long time. Way to go Steve, glad to see other Armenians with good reputation, keep it up.

Steve just got back into wearing cowboy boots again after 30 years. I was watching your RU-vid videos and realized you are located in Falls Church, Va. I was amazed, I’m in Haymarket and I will be using your experience and expertise in the future. Fantastic work!!!!

In my love affair with shoes I stumbled upon your story and thought you looked familiar. Of course! I had been binge watching your repairs,and now had some background. I appreciate your talent and work ethic. Thank you for the enjoyment and edification.

Very nice story on you & the family business. What very busy businessman takes time to donate to people without shoes? Steve you really have a big heart. Makes me think of the time you fixed up those beatup cowboy boots for that old guy that wrote you a 4 page letter of what they meant to him....& you didn't charge him. You have a big heart Steve. Bless you. 😊
