Life is fragile

A distant cousin of mine who was just 25 committed suicide. It is heartbreaking really. I went to the funeral home tonight.

He donated his organs and helped five other people.

This is a somber reminder of how fragile life is…

May his close family and children find strength during these difficult times.

Dearest Michelle -

I'm SO VERY SORRY to hear this news of your cousin. He must have been in a really bad place to have ended his own life. Life in any form is precious and I am sad he felt this was the only option for him. May he be in your hearts forever! Call me if you need to talk - seriously!!!

Always with love -
Stephen
