The old bus bench on Delmar is gone and I miss seeing the same 3 people every morning

I took the same route down Delmar for 6 years, and there was this beat up bench outside the laundromat where the same three guys sat every single morning. One of them always had a paper folded to the crossword, and we'd nod at each other like we were in a club. Last Tuesday they tore the bench out for a new bike rack, and now I just walk past an empty patch of concrete. Does anyone else miss the little faces you never talked to but saw every day?
