"Thirty years have elapsed since Kathy and I fell in love in Grenoble. We both married, had children and careers. And still her voice excites me. It hasn't changed at all. It feels smooth and comfortable. I like to hear it change from gentle and flirtatious to insistent and pleading and back to gentle. I love her laugh. I guess she likes my voice, too. This is teenage infatuation all over again. And I suppose there are reasons why it's returning 30 years after she told me on the phone in my freshman room at Yale that she had met another guy named John. We never really broke up. It just faded off, a sad evaporation because we were 3,000 miles apart and I was too young. We never stopped loving each other. And yet it's more than that. We are older now. We have seen family and friends die. We have brought children into the world. We have worked and loved and watched lines lengthen in our faces." (ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH) This article in John Curley's series chronicling his battle with lung cancer relates how he found new love with a former girlfriend.
