ok so this guy died locally, all condolences if anyone knows him.



Anyway he was swimming with his kids at a beach nearby called North Cove. He was in the water with his kids, they began playing the "hold your breath underwater for as long as you can game". I'm serious, this isnt a sarcastic way of saying he drowned, he was playing that game and drowned.



The father went down, and never came back up. talk about horrible ways to go, and horrible trauma for his kids.



If anyone happens to know him or his family, my condolences and prayers are with them in this rough time.

he was probably a sore loser

 

at least he went out a winner!

unless apneablue was around!

 

these are the jokes i was considering but figured it would be treading lightly between funny and sad.



in retrospect, its funny, the family's loss isnt.

Everyone deals with death differently. I guess it's easy to joke when you don't know the person. You could hope no one will make fun, but I wouldn't hold your breathe.
