This will seem a bit 'look at me' and it's the complete opposite. In fact, I don't even need responses, I just need to express it.

I just got a note about a colleague, not someone I work with daily in my organization, but someone I interface with regularly. He passed away suddenly last night. I was just on a call with him recently, he wasn't sick that I am aware of. He was a wonderful man, one of those really really good people. And he appeared to be young (40s probably) with young children too I think.

It feels like I'm cheating by feeling so horrible right now, because I didn't know him well, but I'm devastated. I can hardly focus.

Don't feel like you're cheating at all. You're a good egg. End of. -- nm - loyola Mar 5, 11:38
those are perfectly valid feelings. sudden deaths of people too young *should* be upsetting. -- nm - Andie Mar 5, 11:14
