A student has passed away

<p>

</p>

<p>This statement struck me as strange. Less attractive to who? Why?</p>

<p>I lost a close friend in high school to a suicide. Same thing- bubbly, happy, great kid. We were all baffled, especially those of us who knew him and knew him well. </p>

<p>I’ve also lost two close friends to medical accidents/issues and two to car accidents. Those were much easier to deal with than the suicide.</p>
