Enough4me, I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your friend. He sounded like a very good man who tried but simply could not overcome his alcoholism. It doesn't seem to matter how long I am immersed in the world of addiction and recovery: it always makes me cry to learn of the losses suffered.
Bless you for reaching out. There are a lot of other adult children of alcoholics both here on this board, and on the board two below it (Adult Children of Addicted/Alcoholic Parents). Please lean on us as part of your recovery...we really do understand what you are going through.
Hugs,
GL
