Archie, How Are You Doing?

What more do we need to know?
While she was dying from a beating by her live-in, Archie talked about his mom, "She cooks good. I love her noodles. We have noodles most days." After a time, I understood the noodles that Archie meant. Archie's mom loved him, and she cared for him as well as she could. What more do we need to know? I wish I knew how Archie is. He would be twenty-one now.
