I like you all, you're all great people.
He screwed you over not once but twice, he put money over your friendship, not once but twice. He had a bunch of years and when everything was fine for him you didn't matter, but as soon as things go sideways he reaches out to you because he's dying. He doesn't care about the friendship, he wants to ease his soul, and that's fine, you can do that, its probably good for you to. But at the end of the day, to me his motives are still greedy and selfish.
He reached out, and that's great, but he didn't apologize so he still doesn't get why he's wrong unless there's something about the story that's not being told. He's still being an a$$, but now he's going to transfer pain to you.
Personally, I wouldn't go. It wasn't much of a friendship, and he might miss the friendship, but he doesn't understand or want to understand that he screwed you over not once but twice.
I wouldn't personally go, because I would tell the guy, not that I want the money back, its beyond that, but we aren't friends, we aren't likely to be friends, you were a lousy friend, and while I hope and pray that things go better for you, we're not going to be hanging out anytime soon, because I want friends that are actually friends.
