Im about 99% positive he is on drugs. I am not sure what, i would guess coke. I know he has tried it and liked it but im scared its heroin because its cheaper.
Since August he has not paid ANY bills and has pawned a lot of his tools. He owns his own little construction company. They repossessed his truck, turned off his phone and they all are homeless.
He dropped his 4 kids off at his ex wifes house. 1 kid is hers and the others are the girls he is married to now.
He used to call me 5 to 10 times a week and stop by 3 to 5 times a week and now since August i might have seen from or heard from him 4 times.
He is the same age as my kids but he grew up hard. He started working for me at 18 and we have been friends for about 18 years. I have helped him as much as my kids or more.
His Dad left when he found out she was pregnant. Another man married her but she had to give the kid to her parents so the kids grandparents raised him.
I taught him how to treat a lady, work ethic, help raise kids, helped him when no one else would.
My first wife got hooked on drugs and there was nothing i could do to help her get over it. She went to rehab at least 6 times and was involuntary committed at least 12 times. She went to prison for at least 3 years and never changed.
When my first wife died i had been married again about 8 to 12 years. My daughter was about 8 or 9 when we separated and about 11 or 12 when i got married again.
When my 1st wife died i tried my best to get my daughter to go to her Moms funeral but she would not go. All she would say was Theresa my wife now was her Mom.
To this day she has never been to her moms graveside. She does not even know the city she is buried in.
Drugs do horrible things to people i really hope he can beat it for him and his kids.

I was in your town yesterday and there are a lot of sketchy looking people wandering around Rocky Mount. I went to the Smithfield Chicken and BBQ and there were some people that looked strung out to me.
