I wish I was still blissfully ignorant

So, sis contacted me on Sunday and told me one of our former neighbors had died. Actually, he was a playmate. Although, we didn't see too much of him well hardly at all after the age of 12. He did teach me how to hit a baseball, and was my first crush. Nice looking, and nice acting boy. He just died at the age of 69. I just wish I didn't know about it honestly, because I keep thinking about it. Not much older than I am..and he was always in good shape, athletic and so forth. The obit doesn't give the cause. I might write something on the online tribute, since unfortunately, I know about it now. I just keep wondering what happened. Do you find some deaths perplexing?

Remember him happily, and realize that he most likely passed away peacefully, you have no reason to believe otherwise.

I think to be carefree must be a wonderful feeling. I am often getting stressed out in situations

Mostly I am bothered when stupid choices catch up to people, and sometimes the people who die are not the ones making the stupid choices but are the people who happen to cross their path.

Sorry for your loss....there have been people that have passed that I didn't t know what was the cause...Always sad especially if they are young.

He wasn't so young, but his mom just passed like 5 years ago or so, and his dad not too long before that, so not really expected

I always find it a sad and scary thing when anyone I know or those born in my year die,

It reminds you of your own mortality.

Of late most deaths around here have been of seniors.

Thanks, it's hard whether you were close to the person or not.
