the worst message i've ever received to date:
"Dear Friends,
It is with my deepest regret to inform you that this last Sunday Mark
Benzel passed away. As many of you know, Mark graduated from Northern
Arizona University this last Spring in Management and was living in
Jackson Hole, Wyoming at the time of his passing. For all of us that
knew Mark, we experienced his humor, his love for people, and in way
or another, made so many of our lives better if only for a moment.
Mark was very special to many of us, and we would like to do something
special for his family. We would like for them to remember the guy
that all of us saw while he was away from home. A couple of us are
compiling a book of stories, short lines about Mark and pictures to
give to his family. We believe they should know how many lives he
touched and how much positivity he gave the world. Mark leaves behind
his mom, dad, a brother, and a sister and a large extended family that
are all terribly distraught with this news and we believe sharing a
positive light with them may offer them some peace."
it's been a very long two weeks. i can't even believe it still, but two weeks after his death, i have to. i still cry, but less now. today has been a shitty day for a lot of reasons and i'd like to be able to call someone and i wish it could be him, but it can't and i hate that. i am sick of being an adult right now. i want to make terrible choices and have no real consequences. i am offered condolences, but find comfort in nothing still. he still makes me sad and angry and hurt.
