      <![CDATA[A girl I used to babysit hung herself Tuesday night. She was a senior in high school, had been admitted to Amherst College in the Arts program, and was going to graduate early. There's already a memorial page for her, and it already has 900 'Likes'. I wish like hell she'd had some sense of this, and it had done some good for her.

      <![CDATA[What siduri @3 said.   It's about reaffirming community memory, of the person, and the things the person knew and remembered themselves.  It is a loss to the community as a whole, and comments are for defining and confirming the (now-hollow) shape of that person in the community.

      <![CDATA[@1:<br />
<br />
Unfortunately, some of them WERE that awesome - but then, IME, the mostest awesomest ones were those least in need of having to hear it from others.<br />
<br />
Still, no reason to wait until you can't tell them - tell them now, while they're still around to hear it.  Most likely, they'll just shoot you with a blast from their awesome-cannon, making you feel a whole lot better about not having waited.
