Guest BatMan Posted December 16, 1999 Posted December 16, 1999 BatMan is bumming hard. One of my co-workers died a couple of days ago. One of the nicest guys you'd ever meet. Left behind a wife and 4 kids. I guess he has a heart attack while he was getting ready for work. He was only 42 years old. What a friggin' crappy Holiday Season for his family. It makes you stop and consider what you're doing with your life. You know, I've always thought that what goes around comes around, and that you get what you deserve. But I guess being a terrific father and husband is no insurance against this kind of stuff. Sorry 'bout bringing your head down, but I just wanted to purge some of my crappy feelings. ------------------ Never Pet a Burning Dog.
Guest Lt Guilo Posted December 16, 1999 Posted December 16, 1999 No, you're very right about that, BatMan. My sincere condolences and deepest regrets.
Guest Imladil Posted December 16, 1999 Posted December 16, 1999 Wow, that really bites. Hard. Wish it were a system where you got what you deserve, but it sure ain't. Hmm. Can't think of any way to lighten this thread up. Nope.
Guest GUNNER Posted December 16, 1999 Posted December 16, 1999 My prayers go out to your co-workers family.
Guest Conor Posted December 16, 1999 Posted December 16, 1999 I'm sure God will give him what he deserves, death isn't the end after all. Whatever the reason he was taken away, I'm sure his family will be reunited with him in a blink of God's eye. ------------------ Right is right even if nobody is doing it, and wrong is wrong even if everybody is doing it. -St. Augustine
Guest Sa Memax Posted December 16, 1999 Posted December 16, 1999 Sorry.My deepest regrets to your co-worker's family.

Guest rebel_jediknight Posted December 17, 1999 Posted December 17, 1999 Gee, that's really too bad... I'm sorry. ------------------ What- You think you're some kind of Jedi, waving your hand around like that? --------- We're doomed!
Guest R.A.V.E.N. Posted December 17, 1999 Posted December 17, 1999 aw man I know how you feel I've been to 2 funerals in the last 2 years. Both really close family. For what its worth I'm sorry.
Guest BatMan Posted December 17, 1999 Posted December 17, 1999 Thank you all for your support. The outpouring of sympathy at work at been tremendous. Dean Whitter has set up a trust fund for his kids and they are administering it pro bono. There are about 250 of us in our division at work and we are all donating at least an hour's pay. That's better than $6k. We've also organized a memorial golf tournament. At $125 a head that should raise some funds too. If any of you snow bound folks want to play some golf in 75° weather you're welcome to come on down. Anyway, thanks again for support. ------------------ Never Pet a Burning Dog.
Guest ovienandenobi Posted December 17, 1999 Posted December 17, 1999 Geez, that's too bad. ------------------ If only you knew the power of the dark side
Guest BatMan Posted December 19, 1999 Posted December 19, 1999 Why to the BatCave of course! Which happens to be conviently located in Los Angeles. ------------------ Never Pet a Burning Dog.
Guest Lt Guilo Posted December 19, 1999 Posted December 19, 1999 ....Well apparently, it was just absorbed by Greater L.A., a victim of urban expansion, no doubt. You know....sorta like Encino.
