well, I will probably get blasted for this, but, I had quit reading BW post a while ago, IMHO he is just an attention seeker.. any way he can get it.. and, lack of tact is an understatement to say the least....
there are some things you just don't keep on, over and over making light about... but, that is OMHO

It is all so confusing....I may not have known Chris as long as some of you....but connected with him and some of the rest of the village people....yes we all go through stages.....disbelief is one....as I have stated before...I cannot stop myself from counting floors of tall buildings and seeing and feeling the anguish he must have been feeling....BWs repeated posts were very upsetting to me....I know I probably just should not have kept coming back....but I was following all the forums and blogs about Chris....I guess my way....but BWs comments were in keeping with all of his other posts on the forums....still needs to grow up in my opinion....but then again he is young....but youth is no excuse for insensitivity....but I am sorry for his loss.....this must be a very trying time for him.....he also is in my thoughts....may he also find peace.

I am stepping foward to defend Brain. He he quite upset by Fuchia's death and now the loss of his grandmother. His remarks may have appeared tasteless, but he seriously was seeking proof. I think he needs this as a sense of closure. I too tried to search on line seeking information. I did not doubt the validity but somehow wanted more knowledge, to help it all sink in. When my Grandmother passed away in Ny , my mom kept the knowledge from me. She didnt want me to be sad , or come rushing back for the funeral. I found out two weeks later. Being so far away It was terribly hard for me to accept. I did not get the chance to get that closure I needed until a few months later. When I went home for the holidays and she was not there, it hit me hard. It was easy for me to imagine she was still alive when I was in Florida.
I have never thought of Brain as a attention seeker. He has some strong opinions, that may differ from your own, or even mine. I know he has his own sadness that he deals with now and then. If anything he comes here to seek comfort and validation more then anything. I am certain he did not mean to offend anyone.

Dove there we both think alike. I did understand what he was feeling, like you did. I know me and I am the same way, I need some type of closure on things. I have never had anyone I know pass away that I couldn't at least get one of those little cards from a funeral home when someone other then myself went to the viewing. For the longest time I couldn't go to a funeral or a wake, but always had at least some type of closure. When my grandmother passed away due to suicide, my closure there was when we finally received her ashes months later.
Also, all of us are a lot older then Brainwater and honestly, none of us know if he has had to deal with someone he looked up to passing away. I know his age shouldn't matter, but everyone is different and grieves. in different ways.

What you say is true......I do hope BW will be able to deal with the loss of his grandmother and his friend.....I am sure he will be peeking in here to see how everything is going......I hope he knows that I bear him no ill will....we all were hurting....and guess we all lashed out in some way or another......I guess I forgot to take the tenderness of his years into consideration....Peace be with you BW....
