Coach,
Sorry to hear of your loss. I lost my life-long friend a little over a year ago. We grew up together. Played football together, learned about girls, learned to drive, learned to fly airplanes, went to college together. Our careers took us to different parts of the country yet we always stayed in contact. I got a call from his brother a year ago and told me Mike was dying. He told me he had 3 DUI's in the last few years, lost his wife, and even got fired from his own parent's family business. I never knew he was sick!
The Doctor gave him a grim choice.... Die in pain or die in comfort? He died a few days later. When we were in high school he taught me how to play the guitar. He was a sick musician! Anyway, I play the song "Fragile" by Sting now and then and I still get choked up thinking about what a waste of a great man.
I feel like everyone else here in that I wish I could of helped him I only knew!
Godspeed to your friend
