An adult I knew for 14 years, most of my life, has just passed away. I cried, and cried. She was the nicest women you would ever know. When I was 9,10 years old, somewhere around there, she let everyone in her house, always had food prepared for us, ordered pizza for us every friday, and took a hundred people(not literally)in her car to the beach during the summer.

She cared about us. Especially, her daughter, named Rachel. I felt so bad, and almost everyone in my grade was crying(yes, including me). She was about 38 years old, yes I know, young. She died of cancer. I'm not pretty sure of what cancer. My question is, why do all the good people have to die? I cry everday about it. It happened on Febuary 24th, and I regret living that day.

I pass her house everyday while hanging around with my friends, and I start crying. If you knew her, you would've cried, too. I know it. I was cut of out school, with many other people. We went to a church, and as they rolled her across with the curtain gently spread over her, I cried. Cried, and cried along with most . My mom, who was best friends with her, also cried. I haven't stepped in Rachel's house since the horrible death of Barbara (one who died). I will be going back into her house, and most likely I will be brang to her room. And yes, I will cry.

Summer isn't going to be the same without Barbara. She was buried in the Hamptons, and I live in East Rockaway, New York. Well, I posted this, because since I always get help, I thought you BYONDers can give me info on how to stop thinking of this.

I would appercaite that, Thanks a lot!

Your not going to stop thinking about it. Just try not to think of it as a bad thing. You mentioned a church, so I'm assuming she is a Christian, as am I, so she should be in a better place now. Be happy for her.

That's probably the worst possible way to think. The logical conclusion is that "Hey, I'd be happier when I'm dead, I'll go shoot some people then shoot myself!"

You completely missunderstand my position. Live life to its fullest, but everyone must die, and depending on your beliefs, that can be a good or a bad thing. Death isn't neccesarily bad.

If Garthor can keep his opinion down to 2 or 3 posts it will be ok.

Well yeah, I know everyone is entitled to my opinion, so they should express it.

...their,... I meant "their opinion." Sorry there, folks.

She is at peace. Whatever reward she deserved for a life well lived, she has it.

Its okay to cry for yourself. Your loss must be tremendous, and its okay to feel bad. She probably would be pleased to know that she meant that much to people.

In a way she will live forever, because the way she treated you and many others will affect how you treat people. She has shown you a good path, and that will help you in life. If you can treat other people as well as she, then you will be deeply loved too, and a part of her will pass on to the next generation.

Very well stated.
