Well it looks like I lost 2 friends today. Both to suicide. One friend was the sole survivor of a plane crash last May. During the full body scan to find all his broken parts after the plane crash they found a brain tumor. He survived both of those, got married, and was back at his job and decided today was enough. The other was a successful chiropractor, with a wife and 2 kids. He just finished building a new house. Seemed to have everything going for him.
Bottom line guys, suicide is bullshit.
Deal with it.

Sorry man. All can offer is don't be too quick to judge. I've made that mistake, only to find out there ws more to the story. Medications to be specific.

Condolences.
This is the time of year in which suicide becomes more common.

Just one more thing that makes this state hard to live in.
Deal with it.

Seems far more common up here in the dreary PNW.
Known more that punched their own ticket in the 12 years I’ve been up here than I did in the 32 years previous.
A horrible thing to leave folks with. Unconscionable thing to leave a kid to deal with.
Godspeed to all

People will say stupid chit.........out of being jerks or just ignorance.
Some might even try to mean well.
With all that emotion...........just let it slide. Grieve as you see fit.

Found a guy just around the corner from here about 15 years ago. Fresh snow in the morning and picked a school bus stop to do it. He probably would have impressed himself with the mess he made... if he had stuck around to see it.
Mark Begich, Joaquin Jackson, and Heller resistance... Three huge reasons to worry about the NRA.

Somebody always has to find the body/clean up the mess.
Better IMHO to be a stranger.
Neutral ground, outside..........stainless revolver.
