A friendship on pause for 63 years...

A  Navy man named John from Pennsylvania, reminisced about his old buddy, Hugh.  The time was 1947, back when a good car was $1500 and a gallon of gas was 23 cents.   They had a good time back then.   John and Hugh were just finishing their time in the Navy and served in the world's greatest war.  

They were good buddies and had grown close, as friendships tend to do in tough times. Both were honorably discharged and went their separate ways, vowing to stay in touch. But, as people and times change, things happen and John and Hugh lost touch.  As the months grew into years and the years into decades, John tried to find Hugh and rekindle their friendship. Every opportunity he had, he tried, but failed.

Now in his 80's, John told his nephew this story. A story about a good friend and a time that was difficult, but still simpler. His nephew, a 40 year old business man with good connections, knew someone that could help. His nephew called a Private Investigator; not any investigator, but someone he trusted: Justin Hodson, an Investigator with Gailey Associates, Inc. John's nephew told Justin the story. Justin took the information, but he knew how difficult these searches can be.

Justin used his resources to locate Hugh. To his surprise, in twenty minutes Justin found Hugh Pipkin of AZ. Hugh had been waiting for the call, knowing that they would talk again. John and Hugh spoke for hours. The friendship was rekindled in seconds, 63 years later.
