    My friend Rick ( Bitchin55Merc ) died today. Life was kicking him around really bad. Lost job , loosing house and the wife wanted a divorce. He ended it today. Why do we never see the cry for help from a buddy. why is it so hard to just ask? This is really sad, he had a young son. OK..just wanted to let you know.

    I lost a friend about 6 years ago . He had been divorced 2 years . Bad ugly divorce . His famly and friends thought he was doing ok . One day he didnt show for work. He was found in his truck with a note he couldnt go on with out her. Left behind 2 kids . His son still blames his mom . I dont know why either. I am sorry for your loss .

    Probably, he wasn't in our club ( his car was to nice ) but he did hang with us at all the shows. He drove a beautiful red and white 55 Mercury.

    This is a very hard time of year when you feel the pressures of life building. Everything around you is in a festive setting and you feel more out of the loop than usual. If you know anyone in this situation it might be a good idea to include them in your activities and be especially close.
    My condolences go out to you his friends and family.

    I feel for his friends and family, especially his son. I lost my father the same way when I was 14, it still hurts 32 years later. :(

    that's to bad dude. i had a hi school friend of mine kill herself about 6 months ago. i was so pissed off at her for doing that that i didn't go to her funeral. now i wish i had. i just couldn't believe what had happened at the time and didn't know how to deal with it properly i guess.

    sorry for your loss.

    Sorry for your loss. May he RIP, thoughts go out to his son.
    I think lot of us guys have trouble telling friends and buddies when something emotional is bothering us.

    Rick, may you rest in peace.
