My thoughts are with the boy who passed, his family, and with you, dear Tarns. May they find peace and comfort, and you as well.
Blessings,

So sorry to hear of such a young life taken away. know your friend pain all to well,I lost my 17 yr old daughter 3 years ago in a car accident. There is nothing you can say or do to help your friend through this,Just be there.I'm by no means saying you are stupid,But for the most part anything people say just sounds stupid and makes you angry.Just be a friend and let her cry,beat the walls ect,and hold her when she can no longer stand.Praying for family and you.{{{HUGS}}}

I will pray for them as well.A friend of mine went though this last year, his friend also killed himself only with pills.It left a big empty hole in his family and friends lifes.I will pray that his family can stay strong though this.I am so sorry Tarns let me know if I can help.

I lost my dad nine years ago to suicide and they are right the best thing people did for me was to hold me when i could no longer stand on my own- they said they were sorry and let me cry- it meant a lot - they and you are in my prayers- god bless

    I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...
