I received a call from my sister at 12:00 telling me that my cousin was found dead this morning by my aunt who tried waking him up this morning. He was not responsive and we are waiting for a coroners report as to the cause of death. He was a great kid, quiet, very shy and just very down to earth. I always connected with him at family get-togethers and I thought there were things we could discuss comfortably. His father died back in 2003 and he took it the hardest of all .What I understand was that he never got over it.
I'm waiting now to hear about funeral arrangements and not looking forward to it; I hate funerals, especially when they are for a 31 year old person.

I hope you can find peace.
