Why?,He decided to write a letter and mail it immediately because he wouldnt wait until it was too late.,D R _ t1,All the Cabbie Had Was a Letter,He must have been completely lost in something he was reading because I had to tap on the windshield to get his attention. “Is your cab available?” I asked when he finally looked up at me. He nodded, then said apologetically as I settled into the back seat, “Im sorry, but I was reading a letter.” He sounded as if he had a cold or something.,“Im in no hurry,” I told him. “Go ahead and finish your letter.”,Foster Furcolo,“This isnt family,” he replied. “Although,” he went on, “come to think of it, it might just as well have been family. Old Ed was my oldest friend. In fact, we used to call each other Old Friend when wed meet, that is. Im not much of a hand at writing.”,D R _ t2,He shook his head. “Ive read it several times already. I guess I almost know it by heart.”,“Letters from home always mean a lot,” I said. “At least they do with me because Im on the road so much.” Then, estimating that he was 60 or 70 years old, I guessed: “From a child or maybe a grandchild?”,D R _ t3,“I dont think any of us keep up our correspondence too well,” I said. “I know I dont. But I take it hes someone youve known quite a while?” “All my life, practically. We were kids together, so we go way back.” “Went to school together?” “All the way through high school. We were in the same class, in fact, through both grade and high school.”,“There are not too many people whove had such a long friendship,” I said.,D R _ t4,“Actually,” the driver went on, “I hadnt seen him more than once or twice a year over the past 25 or 30 years because I moved away from the old neighborhood and you kind of lose touch even though you never forget. He was a great guy.” “You said was. Does that mean ?” He nodded. “Died a couple of weeks ago.” “Im sorry,” I said. “Its no fun to lose any friend and losing a real old one is even tougher.” He didnt reply to that , and we rode on in silence for a few minutes. But I realized that Old Ed was still on his mind when he spoke again, almost more to himself than to me: “I should have kept in touch. Yes,” he repeated, “I should have kept in touch.”,D R _ t5,“Well,” I agreed, “we should all keep in touch with old friends more than we do. But things come up and we just dont seem to find the time? ” He shrugged. “We used to find the time,” he said. “Thats even mentioned in the letter.” He handed it over to me. “Take a look.” “Thanks,” I said, “but I dont want to read your mail. Thats pretty personal.” The driver shrugged. “Old Eds dead. Theres nothing personal now. Go ahead,” he urged me.,D R _ t6,The letter was written in pencil. It began with the greeting “Old Friend,” and the first sentence reminded me of myself. Ive been meaning to write for some time, but Ive always postponed it. It then went on to say that he often thought about the good times they had had together when they both lived in the same neighborhood. It had references to things that probably meant something to the driver, such as the time Tim Shea broke the window, the Halloween that we tied Old Mr. Parkers gate, and when Mrs. Culver used to keep us after school. “You must have spent a lot of time together,” I said to him.,D R _ t7,“Like it says there,” he answered, “about all we had to spend in those days was time.” He shook his head: “Time.” I thought the next paragraph of the letter was a little sad: I began the letter with “Old Friend” because thats what weve become over the years old friends. And there arent many of us left. “You know,” I said to him, “When it says here that there arent many of us left, thats absolutely right. Every time I go to a class reunion, for example, there are fewer and fewer still around.” “Time goes by,” the driver said. “Did you two work at the same place?” I asked him.,“No, but we hung out on the same corner when we were single. And then, when we were married, we used togo to each others house every now and then. But for the last 20 or 30 years its been mostly just Christmas cards. Of course thered be always a note wed each add to the cards usually some news about our families, you know, what the kids were doing, who moved where, a new grandchild, things like that but never a real letter or anything like that.” “This is a good part here,” I said. “Where it says Your friendship over the years has meant an awful lot to me, more than I can say because Im not good at saying thing
