the major media is reporting he died from a seizure…possibly related to the after affects of a motorcycle accident in the past. Doesn’t sound like he did anything wrong or died from sleeping in his car. Sorry you lost a friend.
Snowboarding (like playing with guns) can be a dangerous sport.
I know I get nervous when around them on the hill (how can they see you?)
And speaking of guns …
SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — California lawmakers took their first step toward moving a package of gun control bills Tuesday, following tough firearm and ammunition restrictions enacted in several other states in the wake of recent shooting rampages.
Way to go California!
Not a very good finding. Sleeping in his VAN, WTF. He has enough friends in town were he didn’t have to Live or Sleep in his Rig? AH Chili I really hope this story doesn’t get any worse.What’s Happen can never be changed. I hope we all learn from this lost. If a friend is in need of a roof,couch,shower and social interaction, Take charge and demand there Safety First and invite them in with true meaning that you want them to stay with you. J.P
“NO WAY ChiLi” you are a sheep my friend. Sleep well at night dreaming of realities you know nothing about. He had many a friend, he had a roof over his head, he was found by a friend who realized he was not in his room.
Some compassion for those who found him.
