Tim Harris, right, is the only person in the country with Down Syndrome who owns a restaurant. Or at least he did until he closed it in Albuquerque last month. He moved to Denver with his girlfriend, Tiffani, left.

He became a big deal a few years ago when his story was amplified by CBS' Steve Hartman, who returned to the restaurant to document its end. The piece aired Friday night.

Here's a tissue.

Hartman's piece didn't include much about the farewell party in Albuquerque.

Here. Have some more tissue.
