35

So my coworker Bilbo died over the weekend of a heart attack. He was one of the first people to take me to lunch at this company. He was always kind and took time to make people welcome. He is a good person and I will miss him. He was only about 50.

He is also this guy:

I missed work yesterday as I felt like shit. So today is my Monday. What a shitty Monday. Maybe I will take today off too. Fuck this week.

    Damn, read that first post you linked to. He seemed so nice. You should try to get in touch with his family and maybe send some nice words. I bet they would love that

    I read the post, he really sounds like a nice guy!

    My sincere condolences as there are less and less people like Bilbo on this world!

    My condolences. Often you see coworkers more than your family :(

    That sucks.
    If you ever need/want to talk/ramble/rant/unilaterally reminisce/*whatever else*
    You're welcome to connect with me... im not hard to find and definitely not averse to posting (at least most) contact info here.

    I doubt i have any words of wisdom or profound comfort.. but i also would be the worst judge of that for the exact same reason... and hey, fir some reason (still not clear on why) the last time i posted my unemotional thoughts on death on a devRant thread there was actually a decent amount of ++'s, so im really lost on how im perceived here.

    (highly preferred over a call... i multitask ridiculously well...tis my natural form)

    Regardless, hope shit gets less shitty for you and you/'re getting through it respectively well. You seem like a legit human.
    (if u knew me well youd know that's high status in my perceived hierarchy of humanity)

    @TheEnd Imagine having a name called "Bilbo", his dad is a hardcore LOTR fan.
