Goodbye, My Friend

I got a phone call today that I wish I didn't. The wife of my friend Chris, who was one of my closest friends when I lived in California, called me to let me know that he passed away. He was traveling for business, told to her that he wasn't feeling well and was going to take a walk. She didn't hear from him for several hours and had the hotel look for him, where they found him in the room. He was already gone.

The cause of his death isn't known yet. They ruled out seizure (he was epileptic), aneurysm, heart attack, and several other things. I just hope for the family's sake that they figure out what happened.

The worst part? They were expecting their first child in a couple of months. Life can just be so unbelievably cruel sometimes.

I'm clear on the other side of the country, so it's hard for me to process. I'm heartbroken and shocked nevertheless.

Where ever you are, my friend, I hope you are at peace. I love you, buddy.
