That is sad I too thought he was getting back on track after the problems he had mentioned, RIP Drac I hope you have found peace. My thoughts go out to his friends and family.

So Sorry..... I didn't know Drac, but this poem always always brings a sad peace to my heart in times like this...

A POEM FOR THE GRIEVING...

Do not stand at my grave and weep.

I am not there, I do not sleep.

I am a thousand winds that blow,

I am the diamond glints on snow.

I am the sunlight on ripened grain,

I am the gentle autumn's rain.

When you awaken in the morning's hush,

I am the swift uplifting rush

of quiet birds in circled flight.

I am the stars that shine at night.

Do not stand at my grave and cry,

I am not there, I did not die...

...rest in peace, Drac

I didn't have the chance to meet Drac in person either. I can't even remember if I ever corresponded with him personally on the forum. But through his posts, I felt like I knew him a little, and I think I would have liked him if we'd have had the chance to meet. Looking back, it seems like he did reach out to all of us here a while back, and I am saddened that I didn't take a couple minutes out of my life to say "hey freind, I'm thinking about you". Maybe it wouldn't have made any difference, but then again, maybe it could have. We've lost a member of our family here on LW and he will be missed. I pray that Drac is in a better place now and that he has found the peace he was searching for.

I've not been on the board in a few days. I am heartbroken to read this. His family and friends are certainly in my prayers.

That goes for me too. I'm useless at finding the right words sometimes.

I am in shock! not been here for a while. I never know what to say but... I remember kind words and support from Drac to many of us here. My thoughts go out to everyone touched by this sad event. I would like to propose a toast to celebrate, all the positive things that Drac has left us with, all the help, support, laughs and friendship "absent friends, lost... but not forgotten."

Be at peace, Drac.
