BOOM!!! Out go the Lights...

Sorry to hear Trouble.

Someone in my car club died recently and it was unexpected also. Just like your friend he didn't feel well and died a couple of days later.

I guess this should remind us all that we aren't invincible and at anytime something can happen. We need remember to pay attention to ourselves and for warning signs that something might be wrong. I know I'm not one to go to the doctor and I ignore a lot of things. While I may feel like a baby for going to the doctor for something that seems minor maybe it isn't. Better to get it checked out and be fine than ignore it and the problem be serious.
 
it seems like the moment your born you are preparing for your departure. hard to take for sure. it hit hard when i lost both parents. mom died young in her fiftys and dad in his seventys. on a good/bad note i found them both at home while i also lived there. mom died in her sleep and dad i found after comming home from work one night. heart attack. at least they both died at home. it took me quite awhile to accept. finding both. :(
 
I think we all go through this..

My dad died in my senior year in high-school, 1970, he was 40. The next year I was drafted into the Army. My mother died in 1986, she was only 50....too soon, too young....

Once the lights go out there's no turning back....
 
Prayers to you and his family. Please remember that you can be someone's hero when you pass on by signing up to be an Organ Donor. I am living proof tht organ donation saves lives. I just pasted the 19 month mark with my new used liver.
 
Wow Gordon, I'm really sorry to hear this. Losing a friend is a bad deal, but the way your situation played out...I'd say I'd feel like I should have done something more too. I'll keep you and your friend's family in my prayers.

You just never know when your 'number' is up. As cliche as it sounds, live each day to the fullest and enjoy life. The older we get, the closer we get to finding that 'number'.

On a similar topic, I just lost my grandmother tuesday morning, so I completely feel your pain.

Hang in there and keep your chin up, thinking of the good times you all shared.

Lot's of really sad situations happened to many of you. Seriously, enjoy each day and do what you want to do when you can, because you may not ever get the opportunity.
