“I am not in a hurry,” I told him. “Go ahead and finish your letter.” He 26 his head. “I've read it several times already. I guess I 27 know it by heart.”
“Letters from home always mean a lot,” I said. “From a child?”
“This isn't 28 ,” he replied. “Although it 29 just as well have been family. Old Ed was my oldest friend. In fact, we used to call each other 'Old Friend' when we'd meet. I'm not much good at 30 .”

“You said 'was'. Does that mean….?” He nodded. “ 37 a couple of weeks ago.”
“I'm sorry,” I said. “It's no fun to lose any friend—and losing a real old one is 38 tougher.”
He didn't 39 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.”
“Well,” I agreed, “we should all keep in touch with old friends more than we do. But things 40 and we just don't seem to find the time.”

At work he developed a kind of material strong enough to hold things together. 38 his boss told him not to think more about the idea. Finally, using his own time, Drew improved the tape, which now is used everywhere by many people. And his 39 company learned from its mistake.
