My condolences.
Take care. Your words are heard.
Good luck with finding the money to attend his funeral.

It's crazy how life turns man. Just enjoy everything that's happened of good and keep going on. I was in a dark place for a lot of time and am still struggling with some stuff but I'm so much happier now! Sure I miss my girlfriend since I moved to London like hell and hope to get her to live with me at some point, but damn am I happy now! Stable job with stable income, my own place, buy me some lego sets once in awhile ( got so many lego minifigures online character codes and still couldn't buy the game cause I need to get a credit card :( ). So yeah, just do your best everyday and the good will come!

I'm sorry to hear about it. By telling your story you are honoring his memory and I'm sure it would mean a lot to his family to know how much he has made a difference in your life. Someday you'll have the opportunity to help someone like he helped you, and in that way he'll always be with you.

My condolences. He sounds like a good man. Do what you can to attend his funeral, and if that's not possible, send a letter/note to his family, telling them how much you appreciate what he did for you, and that you will never forget him.
On a side note, don't close the door on a relationship that isn't feasible to pursue at the moment. Sure, either one (or both) of you may find someone else, but life is full of changes. Who knows? You both may end up living in the same area, again, someday. Nobody wants to be "strung along," but don't "force" a separation when one is not needed. You don't want to live in "Maybe Land," but you do want to be open to possibilities. My mother is now married to a guy she's known her entire life. It only took 45 years and multiple divorces on both sides for them to end up happily together.

Hello everyone.
This is going to be a wall of text with mostly personal stuff. If you don't like that, it's fine, just be warned.
About 4 hours ago from writing this, the father of my ex-girlfriend passed away from a heart failure. You might be thinking why I'd care, but to be honest, that man is most likely the reason why I'm here today. I was in a dark place with family troubles, confusions about my mental health and a false diagnosis of prostate cancer (I know that it's a disease for old people and I'm a younger guy, but still). I was 15 and I was out of money with family issues. This not being the greatest combination, he helped me out by letting me stay with his family. Even if I was troubled, he was fine with my relationship with his daughter and he even gave me a job. I became a transcriptor and overall archive worker for the local court. Yes, at the age of 15, even I ponder on that one sometimes. He put in a good word and his reputation on the line so I could make something of my life.
About a year and a half later, they moved to the UK. Me and my girlfriend split up to save each other heartache and confusion.. While we still hold feelings that we did before, we have decided not to pursue them, since it'd be too much of a problem, because of the distance.
About an hour ago I got the Facebook message from her, telling me of this event. And do you know what my first thought was? It was that I'd never see my ex again. Crazy, right? After the initial shock, I kind of broke down. I thankfully have an amazing Irish lass on Teamspeak, who helped me get my mind off of it, while I processed the situation. So now I'm here. Writing this on SG, while still shaking and with tears flowing down my cheeks, listening to this one song on repeat...
Why am I writing this? Well, for one, to save this. To save my reaction, to save his accomplishments. To make sure that his amazing deeds would not go unrecognized. Thank you for saving my life.
I will not be holding a giveaway here, since I'm trying to see if I can scrounge up my money and attend his funeral and see some of the people I love maybe for the last time.
Thank you for reading this.
EDIT:
SadisticChicken very kind and decided to dedicate some giveaways for the thread. Thank you so much.
