I used to work with the art teacher that collapsed in front of his 6th grade class and died. He was the nicest person on the planet. The year I worked there his wife was pregnant and he had found out he had lung cancer. The kids LOVED him and he was just an all around nice person. I wasn't close with him, but knew him from working there and am SO sad about this. He beat the lung cancer and died of a heart attack yesterdat. He was 29 years old and has a VERY small son (toddler-age)

I heard about this. It is such a sad story. I am so sorry. It is hard to have to deal with any loss. My prayers are with his family.

That's awful!!!!!! So many terrible things happening lately. We need to send out some positive vibes in the air or something.

Just horrible.. for the kids, but most importantly for his wife, and his little son who will never remember his daddy.

That is such sad news. Thank you for sharing. Sometimes we run around stressed from this wedding and other things but really life and this wedding is so small compared to the grand scheme of things. Plans will be made, the guests will come, and then it is all over. I thank you for sharing and sometimes you never know what can happen one day to the next. I am thankful everyday! Thank you for sharing!
