like a brother

Jerry meets Eddie at Mr. G's in Gadsden, AL (1988)

We only live about an hour apart but rarely get to hang out these days.  Both of us are married with a family, so guy time doesn't come around much.

I got a call from old pal Jerry yesterday.  He said he'd be passing through today.  I am looking forward to it.

Down through the decades Jerry and I have been through a great deal together ~ both good and bad.  Even in the worst of times, we knew how to make each other laugh.  We've weathered a lot and I love him like a brother.

A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.
-Proverbs 17:17
