That was pretty much my reaction - no way! He can’t be dead - he was young, and fun, and having a good time in Japan…☹

My condolences to his family and friends.

But I’m thinking that the mutual friend heard it from **Auto** ’s parents. They were pretty close.

Bye **Auto**. I liked you a damn lot.  
I know that if someone I’d never met made such an impression on me, his irl people must be hurting bad. I’m sorry for you guys. ☹
