Ryan Young is Dead

I just found out that an old running buddy of mine, younger brother of a girl I used to date is now dead. It's so weird to think about. I've had a few people that I care about die in my life, but not anyone this young. Don't get me wrong, it's not like we were the best of friends or anything, but it's still really hard to accept. Tru, Tom and I had a long discussion last night about the whole thing. Tru brought up the really good point that at least he died doing what he wanted to do (repelling off a crane on CU campus) rather than being killed by a drunk driver. Even so, I can't help feeling bad for his family...
