Not being funny, I think 79 is still pretty young, especially for those with the means to combat illnesses.
I mean look at Keith Richards!

Kirstie Alley was a local and she spent a lot of time here in Wichita. Always championed the city.

Dying is maybe the best PR move you can make.

Angelo Badalamenti died yesterday, known for composing scores for various David Lynch projects, most notably the gorgeous Twin Peaks theme.

There's a great meme going around right now where someone has taken Seinfeld scenes, removed the laugh track and set it to music from Twin Peaks.

Stephen “tWitch” Boss dies at 40
(Apparently by suicide)

I still remember him from SYTYCD. Pretty amazing artist who broke out pretty fast. RIP.

Very disturbing how he celebrated his wedding anniversary 3 days ago and posted happy pictures and then does this. I saw a post from someone online and it struck me how true it must be, and how much we don't know about people's lives.

"People who have never experienced or rather suffered from depression can't begin to understand the pain one feels, the precipice you stand on and navigate, or the negotiations going on in your mind as to whether you end the pain or continue to suffer in the hope that one day you'll get to Happy"

Someone in Windsor just committed suicide this week by laying down on a train track. The pain you must be in to inflict that kind of horror upon yourself is beyond what most can imagine, yet many people are struggling like this on a daily basis.

What can we do to help our loved ones friends, communities that are suffering this way?

I was a fan of SYTYCD. I remember Twitch, he was tremendously talented, and knocked all the genres out of the park.

What a tremendous tragedy.
