Friend of Mine Passed Away Yesterday - Nubblies.net Forums

Niger Angelus · 01-29-2006, 01:09 AM

I don't know if any of you that went to Warsaw knew Josh Ward, but at 1 p.m. Saturday afternoon he was pronounced dead apparently due to overdose. I have never really had to deal with this other than a friend of mine's father passing a year ago. It seems weird, like it didn't happen, like I am going to go to his house and his is still going to be there, but really he isn't. Puts things really in perspective. I found out from my brother who was actually trying to wake him up late Saturday morning, and his younger brother is friends with mine and all night I have been thinking what it would be like to get that call that my brother is gone, makes you really appreciate what you have.

Thats really sad man, my condolences.

There is little for me to say other than "I'm sorry."

I knew the Ward boys too, they were like brothers to me..I still don't want to believe it's true.

He didn't pass away, he fucking died.

Carnivorous Flavor · 01-29-2006, 10:03 PM

i dont understand "heaven can wait"'s attitude....i assume its an act of grievance.

my brother died from an overdose. i had to tell the family it was true, they didnt think he even used drugs....i knew the truth. it gets worse from there.

beebs and djfc show what they are made of by their comments. honor.

im sorry your loss to all who knew young Mr Ward.....

it sounds like a cliche to hear "only the good die young".......but when scum get PUT to death by the state following 20 years time and after multiple convictions of murder, and your friend has issues and parties too hard, it makes you think....

Niger Angelus · 01-30-2006, 12:16 AM

Thanks you guys. It really does make you think...

I actually had a cooking class with Josh back when I was a senior. He seemed like an ok kid. I'm sorry this had to happen to him. But then again, it's tough to feel bad for someone who dies because of something that is completely under his control.

I honestly feel like that too most of the times...people that use drugs don't seem to mind all the violence that is generated by the revenues they help create (that problem is actually a lot worse here)....I'm usually pretty callous when it comes to users.

But then, I think that something like that my easily happen to someone I care about, and then I wonder if anyone can always have it completely under control at all...

Something to ilustrate my point on users a bit (if Niger forgives me for going way off topic).

Yesterday the guys at the Drug Enforcement Division made a bust...they didnt find drugs, but they got a lot of weapons so I went there to check them out:

2- .30 Machine guns from the Tchec Republic
3- Ruger mini 14s
1- AR-15 HBAR
PLENTY of ammo and mags

All of the above weapons were in pretty good state, and were somehow smuggled to Brazil...drug money was used to buy them, but what pisses me off is that I don't think they were intended for shooting ducks.

Looks like the bad guys are copying the gangs from Rio and upgrading their arsenal...

They actually found out he suffocated, when they did the autopsy.

Niger Angelus · 02-01-2006, 09:42 PM

I am just upset that I didn't get to go to the viewing or the funeral due to work.
