Best friend died summer after our freshmen year of high school in an accident working on a cattle ranch.

Let's see. I lost an uncle in his 40s and his oldest son who was 16 at the time to a car crash where a woman dodging traffic ran them into oncoming traffic in Texas.
Then 2 years later lost my godmother who was around her 50s and her daughter who was 18 and starting college the day we buried her, their vehicle hydroplaned into oncoming traffic. She died in her father's arms. He was driving and still blames himself.

Lost my father in law 2 years ago only one month after our wedding. He was 50.

It sucks every single day.

we lost a classmate 10 years ago next week. she was one of those people who was just genuinely a good person all around. it was really sad because it was like two weeks before hs graduation.

her death hit the entire city and not just close friends. it's still sad to think about.

One of my best friends died two weeks ago from an enlarged heart. He was 25 years old. One of the nicest, greatest, most selfless people I've ever known. Reading his eulogy was one of the toughest things I've had to do.

One of my fraternity brothers at Tech committed suicide when we were freshmen. I wasn't real close, but it was tragic that he threw his life away that young.

Yes, one of my really good friends drowned at Tiki Tubing. He was a fantastic human being, about to graduate college, and put so much more into the world than he took out. The world is a much worse place without him.

My best friend passed away in a car accident when I was over seas in 2012. He died at 21. Couldn't even make it back home to his funeral and that's something that eats me up everyday.

It'll put a void in your heart

My older sister dropped dead one day. Aortic aneurysm. She was was only 30.

Neither me nor my parents' life have been the same since. Sure, life goes on and you celebrate the memories. My parents really took a turn for the worse though. I didn't have kids then, so I couldn't understand. But now that I do, I can say that one of the hardest things in life is for a parent to bury their child.

I almost drowned there three summers ago. I'll never go again.
