The faces are fuzzy and the names forgotten. Larry Anstette was my roomie when I joined the workforce in Ontario. Mike Ward was my roomie when I moved to Edmonton. I have no idea where either of them are or what they're doing now. Out of sight, out of mind.
Life gets in the way.
Sometimes it's stubbornness. Larry Tucker was a friend for 10 years. He stopped calling, or maybe it was me. Sometimes it's circumstances. Billy Davidson and I were joined at the hip for six years.
