my heart goes out to you guys..D and Blaw, and everyone else that's ever had to deal with something like this..
one of my best friends in highschool hung himself from a tree in his backyard when we were about 17 yrs old...
he was the drummer in a little garage band we had going..i was on guitar and vocals..it came right of the blue...no one saw it coming...
years later i figured that the reason 'may' have been him possibly being gay and not able to deal with it...
not that he ever came out or anything, but i really think thats what it was...
and at the time (mid-80s) in a small town where all your friends are heavy-metal listening dudes that say fag-this and dyke that..well...no wwonder he never felt he could tell any of us....
his family was VERY catholic as well..so no doubt he couldn't tell them either..at any rate, it affected me for a long long time...
life does indeed go on, but man...it takes a long while to understand or come to terms with....
