Save a life

It was so long ago, I guess the fall of ‘71 and I would have been about 6 years old. I lived with a creek in the back yard that fed into the harbour. I was playing along the creek with my moms friends son. I clearly remember him slipping into the creek and bobbing along and me running along the creek and grabbing him and pulling him out just before he slipped under the street/bridge and out of my reach, into the deep harbour. I saved his life that day and never ever thought about it as I was growing up. Must be thirty years since I seen Dave last. Maybe longer.
