Damn. I was so hoping for a happier resolution to this. I’m so sorry, zeisamkelt. Suicide causes so much pain. Your brother’s comments were always worth a read. I’m so very, very sorry he was in so much emotional pain. Praying for peace, yours and his. ---

Dammit! He was one of less than a dozen posters on this board whose car advise I can take. ---

I’m really sorry for your loss. He was helpful to me when I was having issues with my Ford car, and I think he added a lot to the board for other people, too. ---

Good God. I am so sorry. I have no words, except that I am terribly sorry for your loss. I had a nephew who was schizophrenic and ended up killing himself, so I can certainly empathize. Come here to blog as long as it helps. ---

@puzzlegal , thank you for the title update. We had talked about the board upgrade and how he was really liking the Discourse setup. He had really been impacted by [@AdminModTubaDiva](https://boards.straightdope.com/groups/adminmodtubadiva) 's death; a few days before that happened he had sent her an email thanking her for all her work in getting the board transferred over and stuff. ---

I am so, so sorry, **zweisamkeit**. I know it’s still early, but if and when you have services I’d really like to attend, for you and your brother both. I’m not too far away, just in Lansing, if you need anything that I can help with. Love to you. ---
