In college I was the mascot. Senior year we had tryouts and picked a freshman to take over. The whole year I hung out with this kid, teaching him the ropes.  Here are some pics.

Anyway, an old friend sent me this link.

I really hope this turns out to be nothing. Frown

My cousin called me this morning. She shared a house with Ben for 3 years while he was at Tulane. He moved into my room after I graduated. They were friends from then on. She told me the bad news.  Apparently he jumped from the roof of the building.

Thanks for all your thoughts and prayers. I send my best to his family. This has to be horrible for them.

So sorry to hear about your friend. That's an awful way to go. During my first semester in college, I got a call from friends back home (1800 miles away) that a friend I had known since 6th grade had jumped from the top of a parking garage. No one had known he was going through such a rough time. It was such a shock, as this must be to you and your friend's family. Just be strong and remember the good times with him.
