Allegedly.


Tactless remark.

A well liked young man could see no better way out than to take his own life. Condolences to his family, especially his twin brother who will be lost without him...I hope he has found some peace.

RIP

The poster obviously knew someone had been found hanging in the park to make the remark about "strange fruit hanging in the park" regardless of the facts it was still tactless.

There will always be differing opinions about suicide but the main point is another young life has ended. Such a sad loss, thoughts go out to family and friends. Hope he has found peace

I don't think anything was personal....nobody was to know this poor lad was related to someone on this board, the comment was perhaps tasteless but not personal. I find it hard to reconcile one so young being so desperate but only he will know his reasons. God bless.
