I'm very sorry to hear that, for you and especially his family.

I know the feeling, Tron. My best friend died suddenly in his sleep when he was 26. I still don't know why (his parents would never tell me), but it was the most empty depressing feeling I've ever had. It's rare when you find a friend like that, so it's a tremendous loss when he's taken from you.

Truly sorry, dude. Really.

That happened a friend of mine when he was 22 years old right before he graduated college. We played football together in high school, and fell out of touch when we went off to different colleges. I thought I'd check up to see what he was doing, and I ended up finding his obituary online. It was a really sobering moment. He was a really great guy. Still don't know what happened to this day. I don't have the heart to ask.

My heart goes out to, Tron.

Thoughts with you buddy. I lost a good friend in highschool to drunk driving so I know how it can feel. He made a bad decision and got in a car with a drunk driver. Hopefully time will heal bro.

Sorry to hear it man. Life just doesn't come with explanations for things like this. The best service you can do for your friend now is remember all the good that was him and be there for his family. Peace be with your heart brother.

My wife just got the call from her friend's husband, telling her dear friend "Sarge" died last night. He could barely speak through the tears in describing the events prior to her death. I only ever met Sarge once back when my wife and I were married and travelling through rural Arkansas. She called several times a week, so it feels like I knew her. They were peculiar in that they lived a life without medicine and used herbs, etc for health. She had heart problems 17 years ago and the doc told her she had only a year to live....The herbal stuff must have worked to prolong her life.

We have a blind puppy dog we named Braile, and Sarge had adopted her long distance and always asked about "her Braillee." My wife had her Sarge who was like a second mother, so it's sad times here right now. I guess I'll give Braillee a hug and think of the Mom she never knew.
