Funny thing about lifelong friends. Some are close, some far, some you see, some you don't. But you have remained friends over the years. This was the case with David. I met David in 1976 on P ville. Drank a few cold ones. Saw him again a couple more times as I was roommates with Dennis, his brother. AND we drank more beer. I never saw David again after 1979. I moved away, but we never lost touch. We communicated by phone until the internet and then we texted more often sending jokes, fun times etc. I will miss him and his thoughts.
