My condolences Frau. :( Family friend did suicide few years ago and even though he wasn't very close to me personally it was still very difficult to accept that he really did it.

my condolences Frau :nope:

Sorry to hear this FK.

Sorry to hear that this happened. My most sincere condolences to all of you that are affected. Keep strong.

Sorry to hear that Frau - that's one of the toughest thing a family can go through. There's just nothing that you can do to prepare yourself for it. It can hit you like a truck, or take a while to settle in, but that's not the worst. The worst is facing the rest of the family/friends afterwards. I've unfortunately had the experience, and there's just no way to make it easy - but as long as you're all there for each other, it helps.

Life is a bitch. Especially when it hurts you.. Community will never forget your pain, just don't be affraid to share it with us all! Together we're stronger!

WoW ... :nope:

My condolences FK

My thoughts with you and your loved ones at this time, frau.

That is just so sad Frau Kaleun,:cry: I can see a little of what he was going through, my cousin committed suicide and my brother had a back injury that was not fixable, the doctors took him off his meds:x and he turned to liquor, he is now isolated, always drunk, alone, and wants nothing to do with the family, why I don't know!!:oops: So I have a bit of an idea of the situation.
My cousin was in her early 20's, good education, her whole future looked great, again no note, hanged herself! Still can't believe it!!:oops:
Hopefully all concerned come to terms with this quickly and get on with their lives, such a tragedy!:wah:
I hope you are coping ok with this Frau, I do feel for you.:oops:
Reece.

Sorry to hear it FK... you and your family will be in our prayers:cry:

So sorry to hear of this, can be real tough to have something just come out of the blue. My condolences to you and the family.

Sad news FK. Keep your chin up and remember the good times with him.

Thanks again, everybody, your kind thoughts are much appreciated.

It will be worse for others in the family than for me, neither of my brother's kids had really kept in touch with their out-of-state family after they grew up and got out on their own. Contact was always positive but very sporadic.

But my sister and her husband lived out west when both the kids were growing up, right across the street from our brother's family. They don't have kids of their own and became like a second set of parents instead of an aunt and uncle. For them it's as close to losing their own child as they will probably ever experience and so they are taking it pretty hard.

But we will all deal with it, because what else can you do?

However with mom dying last summer, my sister's accident in November, and now this - I think we are due for a break. That's our three bad things for the "things always come in threes" trope so - ENOUGH ALREADY! *shakes fist at sky* :stare:

Onward and upward :sunny:

May his soul find the rest it sought, and may those behind find solace in the knowledge that he lives on in your hearts through memory.

Please accept our sincere condolences FK. I'll remember your nephew in my prayers tonight.

A very mature attitude to have. :yep:

I just worry about his mom, she has been fighting cancer since... I think it's been at least a year now, and barely hanging on through a lot of it. Now she's got to bury one of her children. I don't think it will hit her until the service and burial and I know she's got a very loving and supportive husband and her daughter will be close at hand but it's still gonna be rough. I just can't imagine it.
