Voice from the past

I got a real surprise this morning when I received an email from a friend of years past. Ira and I were resident mates in neurosurgery back in the 1960s. I had not seen him in 20+ years. He found me through the alumni magazine of our medical school. It was fun to hear from him, but it makes me feel really old to hear that his kids are grown and have their own. I guess it does the same thing to him.

The real surprise was that he lives in Dallas and over Christmas, I am sure that I drove by his home in Turtle Creek and never knew it. Some day we are going to have to get together and tell a few lies.
