Mike (hot hippie Tarzan boy) lost his grandfather on New Years--- we made it through that okay and he was sort of getting over it. I got a call from him Friday morning --- he was in Richmond, so I knew something was wrong. His 20 year old younger brother passed away Thursday night. He had been sick for awhile ( Read more... )
