Video Description:

If you pass by four-year-old Roman Butzlaff's house in Concord, N.C., he will surely greet you with a wave and a "hey." But what began as a friendly gesture became a bond that drew together his neighborhood. Steve Hartman reports on the "family" that Roman built one wave at a time.
