Memorial service going to be held? If so, you should at least attend or something. It means a lot to the families and friends, even if they don't know you.


I was actually shunned for doing that very same thing once. Attending the memorial for someone I barely knew. Was a very surreal experience. Had to argue the merits of caring about life even if it's unfamiliar to you with an angry grieving person. Still not even sure I handled the situation correctly. Perhaps I should have just said nothing, retrospectively, but that was a long time ago.

We had eight people in my graduating class die before Senior Year. It was always hard. The school will probably feel quiet for a few days. I'm sorry for all involved and all affected.

?They weren't the ones that stole the truck, they were just hit by it. I'm not sure what you're saying.


I misread that. Sorry. I read that as the kids stole the truck, and crashed, which killed them. Now I kinda feel douchey.

Yea sometimes people get a little weird whenever someone's death hits them close to home. Nothing really registers and when you try to talk sense, sometimes they just block it out. You did the right thing by trying to attend.

I can only imagine what it's like. We had something similar happen and it was terrible.I just skipped the second day I couldn't take it.

Sorry man, hope it gets better.
