Losing Angela / Thanks to Everyone / BOTYTNS

[SamProof]

Hey Ben,

Sorry it took me this long to see this, and even sorrier to hear about your loss. It's not easy, and everyone handles it differently.

I hope you find your way back to making videos in full force soon, I think you've got a great potential to become a giant video force.

Drop me a line if there's anything I can do to help.

Stay Strong

Glad to have you back Ben, and your emotions will hit when you least expect it. I know it happened to me when my dad passed away. So hang in there buddy I'm here if you need me.

I'm sorry about Angela. (And to a lesser extent about Non-Stars...) I'm glad that you and your Cape Cod friends are making such an effort to remember her.

[ObviouslyBenHughes]

Thanks JL. I'll be posting vlogs about how the process is coming along, I should hope. ;]

I couldnt believe it when I heard it was angela... she was just too full of life. I remember my freshman year the first day of shop I was in graphics and she basically got us to take crazy pictures to photoshop. she'll always be a friend. cant believe she's gone =(

[ObviouslyBenHughes]

:/

I know, I can't believe it either. but we'll get through, I hope.

I'm sorry about Angela. Sometimes it takes a while for such a loss to become real to you. The initial response is disbelief. It takes a while to percolate through all of the layers to settle in. I hope that you find some peace.

Yeah, I lost Non-Stars in an early round. But it was to bnessell1973, so I didn't feel so bad.

[ObviouslyBenHughes]

Why hello Mr. Davis :)

I really was initially very hard to believe that it had happened, but I did eventually break down into an all-out-sob at the wake. It was one of the most simultaneously embarrassing and beautiful moments of my life, if that's possible.

Were you in this NonStars? Or one of the previous two?

Hey Ben,

I'm sorry about your loss. I've got to say that you did put up a good fight, I hope you'll be okay in the future, I'll get my family to pray for your friend. Good luck in the future, and keep making videos. Your emotional side is soul-touching and I believe you'll be successful in the later years. Once again, I'm sorry for your loss.

[snarkdetriomphe]

aw benny, still sorry about your loss - even more saddened to hear it is something that could have been prevented if the powers that be took the other 29 deaths seriously. think happy angela thoughts if you can - she'd like that :)

[ObviouslyBenHughes]

Thanks Liz. The work is monumental in getting the stretch in question (12.8 miles) to be changed, but I'm confident that we can do it.

[tehpageofcups]

I just want to send my condolences. It's never easy when you lose someone at such a young age.

I hope that you are keeping yourself in as good of spirits as you can during these difficult times.

big {hug}

[ObviouslyBenHughes]

Thanks so much for the condolences! They all mean a lot to me.

[PlasmaDude47]
