Lost my best friend last night
 
Well for anyonw who has met myself or my best friend Chris Im sorry to inform you that Chris is no longer with us.He had a long time asthma problem That had weakened his heart.He suffered a heart attack last night and could not be helped.I dony know if this something that most people here will understand but I am so lost and need to release some pain.Chris was so much more than a friend to me since we've lived together for 10 years and have done everything together as well as start a wonderful hobby that had turned into much more of an addiction than he or myself could have ever imagined.We spent much of our time in the last while terrorizing store owners and others in the hobbists.Buying equip to set up a new larger tank to house all the corals that we have collected.I am very bad at sharing my feelings with people but felt that if I didnt talk about how I feel I would snap.This was the 1 place that we spent the most time together at and I felt it best to release here.Sorry for anyone who never met Chris and for those who did Im even more sorry.He was my reason for reefing and now that he's gone I will make him my reason for continueing.I hope this isn't too weird I just needed to talk to someone who wasnt crying.Thanks Clint

I'm sorry Clint. You have my condolences my friend.

It doesn't seem like you have any problems sharing your feelings judging by the heartfelt words in your post.

Keep on reefing & when you've built that new larger tank it will be a fitting tribute to your pal.

Wish you all the very best Clint.

I'm sorry to hear that. I only met Chris once, but he seemed like a really nice guy. Keep going strong buddy; Im sure that's what he would have wanted.
