High school classmates that pass away

Who in your high school has passed away? (don't name names)

I am in that age range where I see one expired every 6-12 months. I don't find out on the spot, usually months later. I don't know most of them on a personal level, but I go to their FB and can see a snapshot of their last few decades of life.

Who are some of your classmates that died and what do you remember about them? If you know how did they die?

I guess ignorance is bliss. I left Canada, where I grew up, right after graduation to go to university in the US. I never went back, and never saw any of my high school classmates again.

@blackarcher256 i have only seen one of mine in person since high school. The high school star quarterback came over to my table to say hi in a bar. Really nice guy.

for me I find out mostly on FB which prompts me to look them up and see who they became in life.

@robertsnj That’s great you’ve been able to keep up on FB, and had that positive encounter.

I’m not much of a FB user, and almost never use it. I only had an account when my kids were in the military to see Army posts when they were going through BT…hoping to catch a glimpse of them. Also, strangely enough when one of them was deployed to the “land of bad things”, its chat function was the only way we could communicate.
