Kristen B. Reed, USA TODAY - When a kid makes his first friend, it's special.
For 2-year-old Deacon Ross, that first friend was the man who collects his recycling.
"He struck up this friendship with O Dee," Deacon's mom said.
O Dee rides through every Friday in his garbage truck, and every Friday Deacon waits for him.
"I think that this is Deacon's first friend, that he really understands what friendship is," Deacon's mom said.
When asked who his best friend is, Deacon replies a loud and proud "Ooooo Dee!'
He even wants to name his yet-to-be-born sibling after O Dee.
O Dee greats Deacon with a "What's up, man?" and a fist bump.
Because Deacon's family is growing, they are moving to a bigger house that's off of O Dee's route.
"It's our last day seeing my brother's friend, O Dee," Deacon's older sister said.
As the two parted for what could be the last time O Dee said, "I'll miss you too."
