Growing up together

Charlie and I grew up on the same block ...179 St ...in Washington Heights . We lived 2 apartment houses apart. The late 40's and 1950 ' s were the memorable years . The block was our home .. stickball , touch football and other NYC street games . We were a close group of guys . Then came serving in the Army , getting married and moving from " the block " It was a good life. For the past 5 plus years Charlie and I had a long distance conection We exchanged letters and occasionally spoke . Somehow when you grow up together the connection remains. Charlie , your last years were tough so rest in peace friend Ralph
