RIP my Friend (member)

At one stage or the other, we all deal with a death. It is never nice losing a pet and thus, you can share your loss with the rest of us and share your memories so that they will be remembered.

RIP my Friend (member)

My best friend (Claudio Martins [HelloWorld]) since Primary school was killed instantly in September from a car accident on the highway towards Pretoria, Even now I still miss him and always find myself wanting to phone/sms/email him and then I remember that he is no longer here :( . I feel so sad for his family and his girlfriend who have lost such a great guy.

My condolences.

Sorry to hear. Be strong & know that everything happens for a reason. We don't always know what the reason is, and it may not make sense, but it will, one day!

Condolences to his family as well.

Really sorry to hear this, my deepest sympathies to you guys.

May I suggest that we reserve a group for deceased members on the forum? Any thoughts?

I think that's not a bad idea. We can discuss it.

Great idea.

I would still send him an sms. It is almost as if he will read it and at least know that you miss him. Hope the pain goes away soon but it will take 24 months before you feel you are coping with it. Dont ever "get over it" as that would be an insult to his memory.
It is easier to ask for forgiveness than permission.
